Yo!
Here's your answer,dude,
Society has found ways to communicate throughout history, from symbols on cave walls to flags on ships. In modern days, we have cell phones, e-mail, radio, television and friend-finding Web sites. And while I understand how important technology has become, my issue with it is how the generations before the “Net Generation” are adapting to the new forms of communication. And what harm does this new technology do to our environment?

One of the things I fear is how the oldest generations are adapting to the sudden surge of technology. What happens in an emergency when a grandmother can’t call her doctor because her new cell phone has 20 different features and she keeps taking photos and video of her feet? This could be the same woman who has trouble setting her VCR but her son bought her a TiVo. There are steps that need to be taken to relieve the added stress that the new technology is creating for senior citizens.

Technology is also creating a larger gap between parents and children. When in the past parents only had to deal with television and friends distracting their children, they now have to face cell phones, the Internet and a real lack of communication skills. The younger generation, known as the “net generation” because it’s never known a world without the Internet, is used to interacting with people through e-mail, text messages and cell phones. They no longer know to socialize in person, which is very different from how their parents grew up and causing the communication gap between parent and child to get bigger. The perfect example of this is the cell phone commercial where a mother questions a daughter about her excessive text message usage and is replied back with letters and incomplete words that is somehow supposed to replace an actual conversation.
Hope that this helps ya!

\textbf{\underline{Generation Gap}}

With the help of this speech, I would try to let you know about one of the issue nowadays .

Generation gap is a gapping between the current generation childrens and their parents or grandparents. There are conflicts in their thinking. The thinking is totally different from each other and that's what something which makes a difference.

Generation gap can be sometime bad for the two people living in the same house. There views won't match which will cause problems. The thing which will be right to one generation will be totally wrong for the other one.

This thing somewhat affects the relationship between them. So we should atleast try to make things better for the two generation and try to solve the problems. They should try to understand each other and respect each other's thinking.
