The older generations tend to have very traditional ideas about how people

should live, think and behave. However, some people believe that these
ideas are not helpful in preparing younger generations for modern life.
To what extent do you agree or disagree with this view?

It is true that many older people believe in traditional values that often seem
incompatible with the needs of younger people. While I agree that some
traditional ideas are outdated, I believe that others are still useful and should not
be forgotten.

On the one hand, many of the ideas that elderly people have about life are
becoming less relevant for younger people. In the past, for example, people were
dvised to le rn profession nd find se ure job for life but tod y’s workers
expect much more variety and diversity from their careers. At the same time, the
‘rules’ round rel tionships re
being eroded as young adults make their own choices about who and when to
marry. But perhaps the greatest disparity between the generations can be seen
in their attitudes towards gender roles. The traditional roles of men and women,
as breadwinners and housewives, are no longer accepted as necessary or
appropriate by most younger people.
On the other hand, some traditional views and values are certainly applicable to
the modern world. For example, older generations attach great importance to
working h rd doing one’s best nd t king pride in one’s work nd these
beh viours n surely benefit young people s they enter tod y’s ompetitive job
market. Other characteristics that are perhaps seen as traditional are politeness
and good manners. In our globalised world, young adults can expect to people
from a huge variety of backgrounds, and it is more important than ever to treat

others with respect. Finally, I believe that young people would lead happier lives
if they h d more ‘old-f shioned’ sense of ommunity nd neighbourliness
In conclusion, although the views of older people may sometimes seem unhelpful
in tod y’s world we should not dismiss all traditional ideas as irrelevant.
