Don’t you find it strange that the people all the time think that their generation was the best and they always criticize the generations that will come after them. And how many times have we heard from young people saying about their parents that they are stupid or morons. This lack of respect between generations deepens more particularly between generations with large age differences between them. Or maybe when we can’t or we don’t want to face the new progresses in our life we delude ourselves with memories of our childhood. All the generations are expecting the other generation to do more to understand them without any explanations. For me the oldest generation should start first , they have more wisdom. No one can ask a younger generation to understand an older generation as they haven’t lived in it.
We are a strange human race because, sometimes we show more respect for a foreigner than for the people closest to us. We are more interested in what some strangers think about us than our parents feeling. Unfortunately this lack of respect is spreading into the world between countries, religion, race, and political parties.
And as usual it all starts in the family . The way they raised you is the way they will have you.
