    The term "generation gap" is a literal translation from the English language, and because of the apt and novel translation, and the ease of memorization, it immediately became a common phrase. From the perspective of translation, compared with the original term "generational gap", "generation gap" is indeed superior. The trend in modern translation seems to be that phrases have prevailed, and the cumbersome translation of crepe seems to be outdated.

    The term generation gap didn't come around recently, around the late sixties. Generation is an umbrella term that refers to people of the same generation. The term "generation" is between 25 and 30 years, but there is no limit, and it is likely that a person who is 10 years apart in age will be considered to belong to another generation.

    As for the original meaning of the word gap, it means a gap, a crack or a chasm, and the abstract meaning refers to differences in personality, opinions, etc.

    I don't think that the generation gap is a conceptual problem under those rules, imagine, how to be a person of the same age, but receive different education, the specific point is: he is learning feudal, and you are learning new wave ideas, although there is a bias, but it is conceivable that the communication between you is like a limit that spans many years, and this restriction is the generation gap, not caused by the age difference as we understand, so the understanding is biased and one-sided. On the other hand, if an old man who is over half a hundred years old is easy to accept new knowledge and new things, and there is no so-called generation gap between you, don't you say?

    I think the so-called generation gap refers to the relationship between two generations.

    Because of the age and living environment of Kaichai is a little different.

    As a result, there is a big difference in outlook on life and values.

    There have been cases where two generations have not been able to communicate properly.

    The generation gap often occurs between two generations.

    The generation gap can often create less jokes than the first type.

    For example, you born in the 90s and 00s, and your parents in the 70s and 80s.

    Let's take the way we live our daily lives.

    Daily generation gap :

    Xiao Ming ran to ask his grandmother again.

    Grandma: Nonsense. I'm not going to give birth, where did your dad come from.

    Daily generation gap :

    Ripped jeans that I bought at a physical store for a few hundred dollars two days ago.

    When I went home yesterday, my grandmother saw it at home and sewed it for me.

    Xiaohua: Grandma, why did I sew my pants for me?

    Grandma: I don't have the money to tell my grandmother that I wear such rotten pants.

    Let's go, grandma will take you to a small shop outside to buy you one.

    Floret: ...A few hundred of mine. Whining.

    Daily generation gap :

    Mother: Daughter, they all say that there is a generation gap in communication, what is a generation gap?

    Mom Celery: Why don't you speak.

    Daughter: Don't make a noise, Mom, I'm playing with pesticides.

    Mom came over with a slap in the face.

    Mom: What's not good to play, run to play with pesticides, you're going to die.

    Daughter: I looked at my mother and said, "Mom, this is the generation gap."

    Daily generation gap :

    Yesterday I wore a new dress. Ran to show off to my mom, but I didn't expect it.

    Daughter: Mom, is there a fan?

    Mom: Yes, I'm hungry. In the pot, go and serve it yourself.

    Daughter: I'm asking if my clothes are trendy.

    Mother: The weather has been so big in the past two days, how can it be tidal, you are not sick.

    Daily generation gap :

    Dad: Who's that guy on your screen?

    Daughter: My favorite man. Jay.

    Dad: When were you together, take it home in a few days and let Dad see what it looks like.

    Daughter: It would be nice if I could, haha.

    There is also a generation gap in life.

    Affected by different age groups, there will be a certain generation gap in communication.

    Do you often have a generation gap with your parents?

    To understand how the generation gap occurs, we must first know what the generation gap is.

    There is no definition of the generation gap, that is, there are huge differences in people's thoughts, concepts, perceptions and comprehensions of things, and this difference generally exists between young and old, adults and children, so people call it a generation gap.

    It is unscientific to say that the generation gap is caused by the distance of age, in fact, the generation gap is not caused by the age gap, but the difference in concepts between people, but the general gap between the elderly and the young.

    The concept is different from person to person, not because of age, so the generation gap not only exists between different ages, but also exists between the same age, because the generation gap is the difference in concepts, then, the traditional concept and the modern concept is the generation gap. Some young people are conservative in their thinking and outdated concepts, while some older people have ideas that keep up with the times or are ahead of the times, and it is impossible to say who is the generation gap with whom.

    All around us, you can't define who is wiser, sunnier, newer and trendier in terms of age. Some young people, like the relics of the Qing Dynasty, reject all new things and are not used to anything, while some middle-aged people and the elderly are keeping up with the trend of the times, adapting to society, and innovating themselves. If you look closely, you will find that many young people are really a bit old-fashioned in terms of concepts, such as the attitude towards life, many people do not understand why people travel, why they read books and study, why they spend energy to dress themselves, they feel that they are wasting money and time, which in the past, absolutely only the elderly thought like this.

    There is also the Internet, many young people refuse the Internet, the reason is, what is the use of the Internet, a waste of time, a waste of electricity, so, they go to drink, to play cards, to Kan Dashan, but now, many old people have entered the Internet, on the Internet to watch the news, listen to **, read articles, chat.

    The reason why there is a generation gap between people is that the key is the difference in social understanding and adaptability, that is, the gap in quality. If a person always reads books, studies, browses the news, and comes into contact with new things, your thinking will not be old, and your concepts will not be outdated, on the contrary, people who do not read books, do not study, and always complain about the society will inevitably be abandoned by the times, so the generation gap has nothing to do with age.

    What about young people? It should be vigorous, sunny, curious, accepting and innovating, living out of spirit, living out of their own character, but many young people have matured prematurely, mature and terrible, mature numbness, simple minds, limbs are not diligent, there is no ideal and pursuit, just like the old world people who are dying, such people, there must be a generation gap in front of a thinking old man, but the old people feel that it is difficult to communicate with them.

    At present, the generation gap between people of the same age is also obvious, there is a generation gap between southerners and northerners, there is a generation gap between urban people and rural people, there is a generation gap between people in big cities and people in small cities, and there is also a generation gap between people with high education and low education. Therefore, the generation gap is the gap between people's thoughts, concepts, and qualities, not the gap between ages.

    Everyone is exposed to different things, and their views on things are also different, and if the two views are not mutually agreed by both parties, there will be a generation gap.

    The most direct reason is that the experience is different, for example, your father raised cattle every day when he was a child, and you went online every day when you were a child, you don't know how to raise cattle, and he doesn't know how to go online. He can't communicate, it's not his fault, and it's not your fault. The solution is to let him understand the present, and you go to the countryside to learn about his past.

    Then you will understand. Of course, you can also read books to understand their experiences and know their thoughts. Don't always blame others for not knowing you, how much do you know about him?

    It is as difficult for the elderly to change to obey you as it is for their boss to listen to you, but some parents are willing, so great! So, do your best to obey them.

    1. The ideological generation gap.

    Because the things experienced in each era are different, it has caused the difference in thinking between the two generations, and the parents are also people who have experienced a lot of things, and they must have experienced much more than us, so no matter what it is, the parents will think about the problem more comprehensively. But children are different, their personalities will be more impulsive, or they will have a rebellious mentality. Only after experiencing it yourself may not be able to read what your parents say.

    Two: the generation gap in life.

    Generally, people of the parents' generation are more frugal, because they are also afraid of a hard life, so even if the conditions are good now, there is no town hall that is reluctant to spend a penny more and enjoy some good life. But young people are different, they have grown up in the palm of their parents' hands since they were children, and they have not suffered anything, so they are more able to enjoy life, which is really unacceptable in the eyes of their parents.

    Three: planning the generation gap.

    The people of the withered generation of their parents are more materialistic, and feel that having savings and a house is the most important thing in life, so they must have a home for a lifetime. But this may not be the case with young people, who are more life-oriented, and timely enjoyment is the most important thing. There won't be much planning for the taste buds, it's enough to cherish the moment.

    Therefore, different times have created different ideas, and no one is wrong, but Lusui has different ideas. If there is really a generation gap, you should also communicate with your parents in time and don't hurt each other's feelings, which is the most important thing.

    When there is a problem in communicating with my parents, I will have a modern gap, and it is also a stage that I feel like is very big. Let's take a look at the manifestations of a generation gap with parents.

    1. Don't talk about your own business.

    From the moment a child is born, he spends the longest time with his parents. From gradually starting to have their own little temper, parents leading them to go out to see the world, to having independent thinking, and even seeing the strengths and weaknesses of their parents, children begin to grow up.

    There are many problems faced by children who grow up, and at the same time they are problems for parents. One of the manifestations of the generation gap is that children no longer tell their parents about what is happening around them. Children have their own world, many good friends, and similar ideas about their own age.

    It may be that the child has expressed his or her own things to his parents at the beginning, but the parents always use busyness as an excuse to listen to the children tell the stories around them. After a long time, the child becomes disappointed with his parents and naturally gives up communication with his parents.

    Another is that every time the child communicates with his parents, the parents will express their thoughts at length, feel that the child is wrong, and force the child to change his wrong thoughts, so that the child is completely bored and does not want to say anything.

    2. Don't ask about your parents.

    Many parents will remember that when their children were young, they were like a grinding spirit, and they had to follow and ask about everything. Although my parents were helpless about this, they also felt very happy.

    But the uproar is that the child grows up day by day, and suddenly one day, the parents realize that no matter what they tell in front of the child, the child begins to stop asking and is unwilling to interject. Even after eating every day, he hid in his small room, doing his own thing, no longer communicating with his parents, and he didn't want to stick to his parents anymore.

    This is the second manifestation of the generation gap, and the reason for this general manifestation is because children feel that the things of their parents are not too meaningful, they are all trivial things, and children are reluctant to ask because they have things that they are interested in.

    The generation gap refers to the psychological distance or psychological gap between the younger generation and the older generation in terms of ideas, values, life attitudes, interests and hobbies.

    In the process of going into society, children turn their backs on their father's views and have new opinions, resulting in differences in concepts, behaviors and habits. The generation gap is often formed by large differences in age or era, in layman's terms, even if you can't understand it, I don't bother to pay attention to you.

    The generation gap is uncertain with the growth of children, it is difficult for parents to grasp, and children are more aware of their own changes, therefore, children should take the initiative to eliminate or alleviate the generation gap formed between their parents, the generation gap is mainly due to children, and the elimination of the generation gap also depends on the efforts of children. The generation gap has always existed in our lives, and our children should work hard to fill this gap, rather than letting their parents' blood and sweat flow into the ditch without seeing its effect.

    No parent wants to have a generation gap with their children, and their children do not worry about their livelihood from an early age, and rarely experience human suffering, which leads to self-centeredness over time. And parents have always been hardworking, suffering but not understood by their children.
