The document compares changes between old and new generations in Chile. Past generations lived through difficult times after the 1973 coup and military dictatorship, facing censorship and lack of freedom. Traditionally, women were expected to be housewives, punishment of children and gay people was severe, and gender roles were strictly defined. However, the new generation since 2012 has become more liberal and open-minded. Laws now protect LGBT rights and gender equality, and schools have less strict discipline and are more inclusive. While progress has been made, some challenges from the past still remain.

2. In Chile have been many changes among generations. If we went back in time we
could realize that our past generations (parents, grandparents) lived one of the stages
more difficult to Chile, as it was the coup of September 11, 1973. This was a part of the
militia can take and where occurred regrettable events for people to put is not due.
This was something that frame much to our grandparents and parents, who also were
able to witness it in his childhood in general and where to add the discipline that were
given in their schools, the little freedom of expression. On the other hand we know that
before parents gave their children strong punishments for any disobedience.

3. The stereotypes of a traditional family were very
marked and that was the fact that a woman should be
a housewife and nothing more, the men had to work
and take the money to the House and the children had
to study whenever they had the resources or but were
forced to tra lower.
gay couples were not allowed since it looked like a
mistake of society and the way to solve this was with
severe punishment, even death. Without a doubt Chile
previously was a country with many conflicts and
problems.

4. New generation
From 2012 Chile, the new generation began to open
their eyes, minds and raise their voices. One of the
most significant aspects was the fateful case of Daniel
Zamudio, where a law against violence against
homosexuals was promulgated, getting today with this
the civil union of homosexual couples, protection
against violence and the identity of Gender. On the
other hand people are much more liberal than before
because our parents decided to educate us in a
different way not to live the same drawbacks of the
past. We can give our opinion without problems, there
is gender equality and everyone decides what to do
with their life.

5. Also, there are laws for everything and it is less seen the serious punishments
towards minors.
As for schools, they have a better performance in teaching and discipline change
completely, adding the fact of inclusion. It should be noted that although we are
not the best country, we have to change many things from the past, although
some continue but very mild and as we manage to open people's minds so that
they can experience a healthier and quieter life.

6. Grandparents and parents in Poland
Several decades ago, in times of our parents’ and
grandparents’ youth, everyday life looked different than it's
today. There was strict discipline in schools. Corporal
punishment for unruly students was allowed.
In the times of my grandparents’ youth there were no
computer games, no internet, only a few had mobile phones.
They spent their free time outside, playing together.

Despite the fact that life is now more
convenient and there are a lot of
modern devices, grandparents
remember well their youth and they
don't fully understand today's
generation.
