Examples Of Generation Gap In A Raisin In The Sun
Bernard Rosenberg, an author who wrote books about societal issues in the 1970s, once wrote, "Generation Gap: A chasm, amorphously situated in
time and space, that separates those who have grown up absurd from those who will, with luck, grow up absurd." People grown up in different
environments or times have their own morals or methods of operation that would not be politically correct today. This leads to a generation gap
between young and old people. The difference between an educated twenty year old with prodigious dreams (Beneatha) and a conservative woman in
her early sixties (Mama) is demonstrated In A Raisin in the Sun written by Lorraine Hansberry with how it shows generation separates dreams, values,
and cultural perspectives as shown with Beneatha and Mama.
Beneatha and Mama's dreams are separated because of Beneatha's dreams of becoming a doctor. Female doctors in the 1950s were seen not as
accredible in their field. When Ruth tells Mama about her appointment for her pregnancy and the female doctor she went to, Mama says, "She–What
doctor you went to? "(61). To Mama going to a female doctor is seen as giving up the baby which is the worst thing possible in Mama's mind. Mama
undermines Beneatha as a doctor or any other female doctor because Mama was raised in a generation where the workforce was dominated by men
while women were housewives. Another choice Mama disagrees with is Beneatha choice to not get married. Mama pesters Beneatha many times about
marriage, but Beneatha never agreed. This was shown when Beneatha said, "I'm going to be a doctor. I'm not worried about who I'm going to marry–if
I ever get married" (50). Beneatha wants to be a strong independent female doctor and not a housewife; besides, Mama believes that women should be
married; nevertheless, they should not take on such a male dominated job. Many times Mama pushes Beneatha to marry a rich man, George
Murchison, instead of supporting her dreams because Beneatha's dreams are not the traditional life style. Beneatha pushes through Mama's beliefs on
marriage and female doctors to still continue her dreams of being a doctor.
Between Mama and Beneatha there is a vast generation gap as seen in the opposing views. Beneatha and

"The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance."– Alan Watts
Throughout history; more specifically throughout different generations, we as human beings have been subject to a certain amount of change within
our society. As time goes by change is almost inevitable among a nation. Change has occurred throughout history due to specific events that have a
ripple effect upon individuals. Whether the change is a result of advancing technology, social climate, or foreign influence there is little chance of
preventing the effect it will have on society. It is difficult to argue that we have not seen a paradigm shift in social attitudes from generation to...show

When asked about his sense of community during his childhood, my Grandfather spoke about how much his family and his neighbours relied on each
other to survive and to keep each other in good spirits. They helped farm each others land and in the end would split what was harvested. It was not
until doing further research that it became obvious to me just how important the interdependence of this tight knit community was to their survival.
Between 1943 and 1945 the Dutch people faced a horrible famine that killed nearly 30,000 Dutch civilians which is an astronomical number for a
two years span. (Hitchcock, 98) Seeing as my Grandfather was so young at the time he was not able to remember much about his times during the
war, so instead I conducted some research on what life might have been for a Dutch civilian during that time period. During the war time the Dutch
government was completely ran by Nazis and as a result many rules were implemented that were of little benefit to the people of the country. For
example men from ages 18–35 were forced to work in munitions factories and do field work, Dutch people were handed out "ration cards" that would
limit the amount of food they could consume within the week. (Van der Zee, 3) Evidently this was a difficult time for the Dutch people so I decided
to then change the topic of discussion and ask my Grandfather about his teenage years. To kick off the discussion the

Generation Gap; Teenagers and Adults

are the drivers of our own destiny, we are responsible for our life; on what we are and what will we become. Nowadays teenagers set their goals in
order to be successful in the near future. "Success is measured by power, popularity, control, achievements, authority, winning and etc. Having more
and being more is success." (Peirce, 2005) Teenagers of current society seems very difficult as compare to the older times. Teenagers of current society

The teenagers were not accepted by adults simply for the reason that the teens dressed differently from what was considered to be normal dress. "They
[adults] confuse thrashers with metal heads and Goths because they all wear black. Then they assume that they all are all taking drugs and worshipping
Satan" (Hine, 2001). Adults do not understand that teenagers are constantly searching to define and prove themselves as individuals. Expression
through clothing is a form of that. Yet, Hine's article is not about merely how the teenagers dressed differently to express themselves, "It is about the
alienation of teenagers from adult society, and equally about the alienation of that society from its teenagers. The mere presence of teenagers threatens
us. Is it the idea that this young generation of gothic–dressed supposed losers will be replacing the elders when their time is up that is so scary? Or are
the youth of today causing this boundary that is formed by instigating the adults with things that they know scare

How Does Media Affect The Generation Gap
The impact that media has on the process of socialisation is due to the generation gaps. The term "generation" is defines as "subcomponents of
society demarcated by age". What defines a generation is generally the diving lines are tied to crucial global events. For example, the end of WWII
was the birth of the Baby Boomers. The generations that my "Cross–Generational Study" looks at are Gen X (1967 – 1976) and Gen Z (1996 – 2009).
Gen X which are born between 1977 to 1995. They are currently aged 41 – 50 and make up This Generation follows the baby boomers. Characteristics
of Generation X include entrepreneurial as they struggled to find jobs after college, hardworking as they make up 33% of the workforce, educated,
ethnically diverse and individualistic. Gen Z which are born between 1996 to 2009. They are currently aged 8 – 21 and make up 20% of the Australian
population. Characteristics of Generation Z include diversity, mature, open–mined, plurality and technology literate. Strauss– Howe 'theory of
generations' Strauss–Howe "theory of generations" identified repeating cycles of generational values. These values diverge between four distinguish
eras the Prophet, Nomad, Hero and Artist generations. It states that it takes 80–year period for them to replicate themselves. These transitions are done
to make way for next to come. The theory is called the "Four Turning". Stage 1– Hero The cycle beings with a generation in crisis. Throughout this

Generational Gaps And Conflicts Essay
In the short story Who's Irish by Gish Jen and Everyday Use written by Alice Walker, both authors address generational conflicts between mothers and
daughters, as well as struggles to coexist while living in very different cultural mindsets. The moral of both stories is that cross–cultural issues exist in
every family tree and we often find comfort in unlikely places. While a mother may not agree with her daughter's choices she never loses love, and
while a daughter may not like decisions that are made by their mother she never loses respect. Both are stories about women going through struggle to

But Sophie is wild, Sophie is not like my daughter Natalie, or like me" (Jen 105). As a mother–in–law she struggles to understand the Shea's and their
problems, in her thoughts they should have no problems and be rich because they are white, "Why the Shay family have so much trouble? They are
white people, they speak English" (Jen 105). Not only does she not understand the Shay's who are Irish but she also fails to understand the dynamic
of her daughter's marriage, "I especially cannot understand my daughter's husband John, who has no job but cannot take care of Sophie either.
Because he is a man, he say, and that's the end of the sentence"(Jen 105). The mother has an overall lack of understanding of the American family
system and the daughter, Natalie is overall very abrasive with her mother and does not take time to try and close the culture gap, "Look my daughter
say. I have a big presentation tomorrow"(Jen 107). The mother is also painfully aware that her daughter has little time, "In China, daughter take care of
mother. Here it is the other way around. Mother help daughter, mother ask, Anything else I can do? Otherwise daughter complain mother is not
supportive"(Jen 106), once again a comparison between China and America and a lack of understanding. She speaks of Natalie with as much love as a
person can have, even when her daughter is doing the hateful thing of making her mother move out of her home,

"When you are as old as me now, you will have the same opinions as me" – said my mother when we had a sensational discussion. I can't understand
what she said. I thought much about it and I realized that we have many differences. So what is its cause? I think the main cause is the generation gap.
"Generation gap" is a popular term used to describe the wide differences between members of younger generation and their older. A generation gap

How many times have you felt that your parents don't understand you, that they have no respect for you as an individual? How often do you shake
your head in frustration and blame it on the 'generation gap'? Parents! They are like aliens from another planet altogether! You and they are in
different camps; strangers forced to live under the same roof Right? Wrong! There is a way of bridging what appears to be a yawning chasm. If you

Generation gap means difference in attitude, or lack of understanding between younger and older generation. This generation gap has always been
there but these days it has reached to an explosive stage. The values and patterns of life have changed to a great extent. Today, everybody likes to live
and behave in his own way. This attitude has widened the generation gap, which can never be filled. It is now destroying family life completely. The
elders look after the children and make all sorts of sacrifices to bring them up. Naturally, they feel they have a right over them. They want their children
to follow their instructions as they have certain expectations from them. But the children, when they grow up, want a complete freedom in their
thoughts and actions and unfortunately their thoughts and actions are just opposite to those expected by the elders. They revolt when any kind of
restrictions are imposed on them. Consequently, the family breaks up and everything gets ruined.
In India, we are yet in the initial stages, but the gap has appeared and it is going to grow bigger day by day. So it is not only the responsibility of the
younger but also of the elders to fill this gap with their love, affection and trust. The

Chinese Generation Gap Analysis
The generation gap between Chinese immigrant parents and their children stems from social and cultural differences. Cultural Chinese norms are
extremely different from traditionally American cultural norms which leads to children having to deal with parental expectations. There are largely
pronounced differences when it comes to goal orientation and success as explained by Zhou, many immigrant parents have a very one dimensional
approach when it comes to education and see it as the only route for guarantee success in the future (Zhou, 478). Views on the ways to achieve goals
varies greatly between immigrant parents and their children that are born in the United States, ultimately leading to conflict. The generation gap relies
heavily the perception national origin and culture and therefore greatly affects social structure within immigrant families by placing extreme pressure
of the children of Chinese immigrants through the need to succeed in America; neither generation is familiar with or understanding of the same norms
or values. In terms of the larger social and cultural structures, a big factor for Chinese immigrant families is their neighborhood and the ethnoburbs,
which are ethnic enclaves, within them. Within this neighborhood context, Chinese immigrants are able to use resources and build communities that in
turn helps manage the contention that surrounds the generation gap. By enrolling in program with children of similar background, the children of

Differences Between Generation And Generation
Anyone who is familiar with our generation knows that our generation is extremely different from our parents' generation. Thus, creates a gap between
the two generations, and has been acknowledged by many sociologists. Aside from today's young people inability to accomplish the millstones of
becoming an adult, there is lot more differences between this generation and the older generation. Therefore, in this essay, I will be comparing and
contrasting both generations. From how their career expectations are different, what was their definition of happiness, and how their parents played a
role on making their dream or expectation turn into reality? To begin with, let me tell you a little bit about my generation. We are the generations that
zd6was born between the late 1970s and the mid–1990s. The "Gen Y" has we are call, was raise by the "baby boomers" our parents' generation.
Growing up, as Tim Urban stated in his article; Why Generation Y Yuppies Are Unhappy ", we were raised "with a sense of optimism and unbounded
possibility" (par 6). Moreover, what our parents didn't tell us, is that we have to devote most of our entire life to achieve those possibility. However,
our parents' generation – the baby boomers, born in the 50s, raised by our grandparents. Were raised to "build practical, secured careers" (Urban par
4) But another for them to get to stable career they have to go through hard time, bad decisions and loss of love ones. And that brought us to career

Communications between the generational gap
Have you ever found yourself unable to continue or hold a conversation with someone older or younger than you? Perhaps it was simply a lack of
interest in the topic or the inability to find similar ground to connect on. The cultural differences between generations in America create a gap where
the ability to communicate effetely and relate is lost. How the younger generation communicate is based off how they were taught by the older
generation. Just like any child the younger generation is molded by experience. When the older generation refuses to reach across and pull the adults of
the younger generation they are creating the gap in communication. The older generation expects the younger to figure out their place in the world as
they had to during the times of hardships and war. However, in the recent years America has avoided was and grown within its self to create better
lives for its people. No longer do kids grow up starving and the fear of losing a loved overseas is not a common one. The hardships that molded the
older generation, the same hardships the older generation wants to the younger one to face are no longer in existence. So leaving the younger
generation alone to mold its self without the hardships leaves them to looking upon themselves and one another and try to find how they best fit in.
Their communication is based off their ability to relate with their own, not with the elders of society. To them the elders

Generation Gap
Analysis of a Text There will be always a generation gap between a generation and another one. Generation gap is a broad difference in values and
attitudes between one generation and another, especially between children and their Parents. This can be defined as occurring when older and
younger people do not understand each other because of their different experiences, opinions, habits and behavior. Generation gap isn't a new feature
of our era or a new phenomenon but it has been existed ages ago. The idea of generation gap has been discussed many times by many authors. Brenda

She did that to build a momentum of agreement between her and her audience. And when they agree with her in the beginning she will gain their
trust. Consequently, when she comes to her conclusion they would agree with her as well. This is also the same reason why she used a real
world example of the Irish boy. In this article powers used the pronoun "us" when she speaks about her audience and the parents of nowadays
teenagers, baby boomers. She did that to align herself with the audience and get them well involved with the article. Moreover, Powers used an
ideal rhetorical strategy which is the rhetorical questions. This is an effective method of making the audience react with you. During her article she
asks a question and the she gives the audience the opportunity to think about it. She makes them search for an answer for that question and makes
their minds involved in the issue. In most of her article she while she gives us facts that her readers will agree with her. And as a result, her readers will
become convinced of her point of view. However, she spends a lot oftime in giving proofs and facts why this is true and why the result would be an
irresponsible generation of adults. Her argument here seems to be too convincing that when we reach her conclusion we still more convinced about
the first part of her paradox. She didn't support her conclusion well with enough ideas to make you believe what she is arguing for. In the article,

that money will make him into the leader of the family, and be able to get them anything they want. Beneatha is just like her brother that the basic

basic stuff is just not enough for her she needs more. Success in Walters's eyes is all about money, and it's not all about him being greedy it's just
all about wanting to have more for the family. At the beginning of the play Walters's son wanted fifty cents for school but when Travis asked his
mom she said no then he asked Walter and he gave him the fifty cents like it was nothing. Walter just wanted his son to look up at him and see that he
is a big successful man. Hansberry wrote "When we first meet him, he does not wish to alter it; merely to change his position in it" "(Hansberry, Willie

Generation Gap Essay
In this modern era of the 21st century, the United States educational system has had to adjust on multiple occasions to fit the need of the growing
career and college–based needs in order to be successful. With the help of technology, new techniques, and a different point of view of higher
education, it has become hard for teens and parents to connect on an educational level.
Between my mom and I there is a good 30–year gap, but as I move closer to finishing high school and applying to colleges, I have noticed that the
generation gap has made it difficult for my parents to understand what my generation finds very basic. It may be just the "use it or lose it" effect and
they haven't used the things I'm learning now after 30 years of not being in high school, but it creates a lot of tension in our house. However, in my
mom's house, her parents couldn't help her with her homework at all because my grandparents didn't have a college degree and didn't take the strenuous
courses like my mom did. My parents can help with some things I do, but when it comes to new techniques they don't understand why teachers have to
make the process harder than it needs to be. Even some simple things are different within the generational gap like the addition of preschool, all–day
kindergarten, and honors classes instead of AP classes or college classes. Mymother and I had always been overachievers. She used to go to school

I have 17 years of experience and wear the rank of Gunnery Sergeant, which is known for having a fair amount of understanding and proficiency in my
field. To that effect, it influences the way I carry myself around other Marines, particularly younger (generation–y) ones. This does not mean I tend to
be condescending or have a brash personality, but in an effort to be clearly understood, it definitely has an authoritarian effect when speaking or
collaborating with others. This authoritarian tone might have even transcended into the technology realm and has made me reflect on how I use
electronic means to communicate. I noticed this phenomenon trickled over to cyberspace, when sending email. Case in point, I tend to receive
increasingly formal email responses despite my original message being exempt of formalities and when it is acceptable for my subordinate's writing
not to be as rigid. I have attributed such behavior to Marines not wanting to be perceived as insubordinate or disrespectful and I find it commendable.
However, these instances reflect my way of communicating as well. Because I have embraced technology most of my adult life, particularly email, It
has affected my style of expression. My email messages are often short and direct, unencumbered by any attempt to be eloquent. Which, to me, tends to
mean clear messages and free of barriers. Is this the result of using electronic means of communicating? Maybe, however, my attempts center only on

Generational gap refers to the differences between a younger generation and their seniors. Each generation developed in a different period, with
different ways of living and with different ideals. Although these differences have been present throughout history, old generations have to be

The enlargement of instant communication technologies is manly based on the internet, such as email, texting, and IM, but the importance of new
medias like YouTube and social networks like Facebook, MySpace or Twitter also simplify the communication through technology for the young
generation. In the actual society, the Baby Boomers seem to be outdated in comparison to the technological revolution which affects the new ways of
communication. Nevertheless, these two generations remain close to each other and very similar about certain points. According to a study by the
Harvard Business Review, "they tend to share many attitudes and behaviors that set them apart from other generations" (Hewlett, Sherbin and
Sumberg: "How Gen Y and Boomers Will Reshape Your Agenda"). Baby Boomers and Generation Y share vision and values, because they have the
same sense of responsibility to make a positive contribution to the society. The balance between the work and the personal is very important to both
generations, because they want to take time in their hobbies, passions and some leisure. Generation Y needs attention, praise and reassurance. They
look at Baby Boomers as mentors, and these latter want to protect and guide the young generation, particularly when they interact in a work place.
Generation Y may benefit greatly from mentors who

Generations And The Gaps In-Between
Generation's and The Gaps In–Between In our present day lives many might not think about different generations, let alone how it affect them and
the world they live in today. But even today people from many different generations live their lives day to day like everyone else. The world in a
sense* is a generational salad bowl, mixed with people of all generations living together. Many might never notice they are living in a generational
salad bowl, that is until they talk to someone who was born in a different generation them as each generation has specific views and opinions that
differ from each other. Then they would see how the generational gap plays a part in society today. The generational gap in the world is vital to a
global balance. The generation's and the gaps in–between them help to keep a balance throughout humanity that way no one generation is* supreme or
in the majority *over the other. Also,* those from different generations can change their views and opinions based on other generations that tend to
appease to them. Thus providing a way for everyone from every generation to be able to have a say on what is happening in present day society, without
one generation being above another. The generation gap can clearly be seen by many different things such as* language, work environment, interests,
opinions, and fashion. Throughout generations naturally as time goes on everything that could be found at the time in that generation becomes dated,

(2009), I believe the researchers had some valid points at the completion of their study. To retain nurses, as leaders, we need to understand the
differences in the generations. Boomers want recognition for their achievements, expect rewards for performance, want to feel that they are
contributing, and appreciate supportive managers (Farag et al., 2009). Including Boomers in decisions and placing them on committees helps the
Boomers to be included and useful. Gen–Xers, on the other hand, want immediate feedback and gratification, expect collaborative decision–making,
and anticipate mentoring relationships while working with competent and knowledgeable leaders (Farag et al., 2009). They would benefit from finding
a mentor and consistent feedback. Generation X and Millennial nurses had significantly lower job satisfaction scores than the Baby Boomers
(Leiter & Laschinger, 2010). On my unit satisfaction is impacted as well, although recently I am seeing a shift as the demands and pace are
increasing the Boomers are having a harder time keeping up in the emergency room environment. The Millenials need to feel valued and also have
a seat at the table, but they also need the time to grow their skill set and would benefit from feedback. The generations working together and passing
back and forth what they are proficient in is enjoyable to watch, to see a Millennial helping a Boomer with the computer or new equipment is just as
important as that Boomer or Gen Xer passing on the stories and the "whys" behind how we do some things. As a leader it is my goal to relate to and

The Generation Gap is Creating Misunderstandings
The generation gap is another reason of creating misunderstanding between the families that can affect their relationships. The passage, "The
Generation Gap" describes how the young and the old people seem to be living in two very different worlds that are separated by different skills and
abilities because of how the generation gap has affected them. From my personal observations, my family is very traditional. My family expects a lot
from my brother and me such as staying within the same area as our parents, marrying the same person that our parents choose for us and continuing
to do the same business as my parents had been doing last few years. These rules have caused so many problems in my family relationships which
have led to a big argument. From the passage, "The Generation Gap" and from my personal experiences that it can be seen there are many reasons for
the generation gap that can affect relationships in families which might lead to separation from the family and more restriction on their freedom. There
are many reasons that the generation gap can cause separation from family. The generation gap is something that easily can lead to a big
misunderstanding between each other without any big reason. For example, "in the passage, it explains how parents always complain about their
children, as if "children do not show them proper respect. They also a lot of complains about their about their children's music, study habits, and
television viewing." This quote

Generation Gap Essay
"My dear daughter, I do not know why you rarely talk your life to me since you became a senior high school student. If I made some mistakes, please
let me know. I hope everything goes back like before". These words come from a letter which was written by a mother to her 14–year–old daughter.
What made the mother so frustrated and use such a sincere mood to talk to her daughter is the generation gap. The meaning of this word, generation
gap, is the differences of viewpoints and the perceived psychological distance between the younger generation and the older generation in hobbies,
habits, values, world view, and attitudes toward lives. In childhood, little girls like to imitate mothers' behaviors, making up their faces with mothers'
cosmetics and dressing themselves with high heel shoes. Littles boys are more willing to play footballs or video games with their fathers, and the
great majority of them admire their fathers most. However, as children grow older, parents have gradually felt it becomes harder to get along well with
their kids because not only could not parents understand the children's minds, but also their ideas are difficult to be accepted by children. As a result,
problems caused by generation gap bursts, and it has a profound impact on both parents and children. To dope out a solution to this problem should
consider these two questions: what causes the phenomenon and how it affects the relationships between children and parents.
