1. Culture
From art to music, cultural beliefs and customs, our
generation has changed rapidly. Unlike the new
generation, baby boomers were more of an
independent generation since it was their personal
responsibility for them to make something good out of
themselves. By this I mean that nobody used to spoon
feed them and all the time they were made to
understand that life does not owe them anything so
they used to be attentive and fixated to ensure that
they are always on the right track. On the other hand,
our generation feels like we are authorized on
everything and we can easily give up from doing
something if it requires some extra effort or
concentration.We have primed to always expect things
to be done for us and it is truly affecting us on how we
go about in our day-to-day activities.
Technology
Technology has evidently changed our society (both
positively and negatively). As days goes by, science
and technology has been virtually advanced and used
to create various machines from vehicles, weapons,
mobile phones,computers or any other equipment that
are designed using technology. Huge number of new
generation is relying on the internet and precisely
social media which has seen to gain more attention
from our youngsters over the past few years and
people can now meet and communicate easily with
their loved ones regardless of your whereabouts.
Compared to the old generation whereby technology
wasn’t really familiarized as they had to find a way to
dig deep and ensure their task is completely done by
their bare hands without any programmed device that
they could use
Fashion
from dressing style to hairstyle and shoes, we have
seen both men and women’s mode of dressing in the
new generation varying as diverse clothes and outfits
being introduced from various clothing designs on the
runways and concerts as compared from the older
generation where they never had such thing like a
clothing company or designers and they were still
descent andsmart as they used to craft for themselves.
Lifestyle
The baby boomers lifestyle was quite difficult because
as a way of discipline, the children were whipped and
given punishments by their parents and any mistake
made there were consequencesand this made the child
to be more vigilant and careful next time before trying
another stupid thing but our generation parents are
becoming more relaxed when disciplining their child
and that has led to the child becoming rebellious and
having troubles following some simple rules and
regulations given by their parent.
Media
The older generation had nothing to do with the media
because they only experienced real life happenings
with no computer, television or phones back then
people were still keeping in touch and spending time
with each other unlike the new generation whereby the
media has been used as a system of keeping in touch
with your relatives/loved ones. A person can easily get
your details just by searching your name on the
internet.
But either way, we are never too old or young to
accomplish anything we desire or either as the old or
new generation what really matters is if you are willing
to pay the price of your goal.
