Answer:

Generational gap means a kind of difference in the thought, lifestyle, work of interest and opinion among people of different age groups Generation is generally divided into three partitions one is childhood, second is middle life and third is old age. Usually, a family includes members of all these three generations with the title of children, parents, and grandparents under one roof having different thoughts and views. People of the new generation are complete with a changed mental status, which are according to this new advanced technology of the 21st century.Mostly people of the old generations still neither want nor try to accept new advanced electronic technology of the 21st century and this gap of the physical and mental strength of people of different age groups is called the generation gap.

People of different age groups, sometimes self create generation gap due to their likeness about their own area of interest, views, and thoughts. Mental and physical strength along with the changed outside environment is also the reason for the generation gap. It is not people’s own wish to become isolate and cut off from others but due to being connected and related to this changing time and technology, they are automatically forced to be separated from other people.

The style of working at workplaces has been completely changed now, like Email and video calls are the main function which is followed by a new generation. Along with, today’s workspaces are full of all those necessary equipment and requirements which the new generation requires like various companies have equipment for fitness, exercise, sports, entertainment, etc inside the offices.

In spite of playing outdoor games, most of today’s kids entertain themselves by playing electronic gadgets or watching cartoons on televisions, even they do not prefer to read comic books which were the best time pass for children of the 1990s.

The biggest reason for the generation gap is the lack of communication among elders and youngsters.

Lack of a Joint family also creates a generation gap where the new generation could rarely meet their grandparents and this gap generates a generation gap.

Children enjoy the company of their friends rather than spend time with their parents or grandparents.

When parents do not behave as a friend with their children and always instruct their children to do things according to them.

Technological gadgets, electronic media, and entertainment industry are another reason for generation gap as these things involve people so much in their area of interest and do not allow connecting them with even with their family members.

Lack of mutual understanding, a difference in age or experience and atmospheric changes are also the reasons for the generation gap.

Sometimes, it affects too badly the physical and mental situation and state of the people:

Due to a lack of communication and understandings among the old and young generations, people of old age become isolated from the outer world which is physically and mentally not good for them.

Misunderstanding and lack of emotional feelings among members of the family are emerged due to the generation gap.

The young generation has forgotten their morals and values which their parents have followed for many years due to their involvement in this fastest changing modern technology.

Unfortunately, children or youngsters got addicted to bad habits like smoking, drugs or alcohol to remove their loneliness or because of the bad company which they found in the outer world. These addictions are too hazardous for their physical and mental health.

In spite of blaming each other for different values and morals, it is needed to understand and appreciate other’s thoughts and interests on different issues. The old generation has to accept the new generation’s technical and fashionable changes, and also the new generation should understand and follow the old generation’s traditions and rituals in the same manner. Parents are required to keep updated with the technical changes so that they can easily answer their child in any technical issue or topics with satisfying answers, this will help them to easily cope up with their child in all manners. Nothing is possible until we do not try for it which is also proved in the elimination of the generation gap.
