Age is one big reason for the natural gap between generations. However, the major issue
arrives due to the mental gap in terms of thinking pattern & current trends. Children believe
that they are grown-ups and it is high time for them to be independent. This helps them to gain
more self-esteem.
On the whole, both parents and their children do not see things from the standpoints of each
other. Thus, misunderstanding is a great cause for the formation of the generation gap. They
talk about some issues that can cause tension between teenagers and parents: homework,
sibling fights, boundaries and trust. Some teenagers feel their parents need to show more trust
and give them more independence, but they also know hat parents are mostly just concerned
for their safety.
Technical ability is also important. How technology affects the generation gap is impacted by
how well older people can learn and use new technology. This tends to be written by
Millennials for the younger generation, so many older people can become left behind when
things move too fast.
The ages between parents and their children are often large enough that they experienced their
most impressionable years during a different culture than each other. Adolescence is often the
time when people are most influenced by the society around them and as our world keeps
developing and changing, things rarely stay the same, causing generation gaps between parents
and their children.
Here are a few causes of the generation gap between parents and child:
1. Lack Of Understanding
Different generations sometimes seem to speak a different language. Due to the changes in
society from when parents were growing up, to how it is in the time of their children, even their
way of thinking and what they deem to be normal tends to be different.
2. Mistakes Are Rarely Tolerated
Parents often do not tolerate mistakes and tend to tell their children off. Children need to make
mistakes to learn and grow in life, but if they only get punished for it, it widens the gap and
creates a lack of proper communication.
3. Children Are Expected To Be Replicas Parents often have dreams for their kids, and a lot of
the time tends to force them in that direction without taking into consideration what their child
wants.
4. Too Many Comparisons
Comparing children to each other or even to how you were as a child is another reason the gap
becomes wide. This often causes them to lose confidence in themselves and can destroy any
enthusiasm they may have previously had.

2. Communicate
Making the time to communicate with your kids every day is very important. The simple act of
talking about each other’s day at the end of the day can help you get to know each other and
make it easier to speak freely around the other. Children need to know they can approach their
parents with anything, something that can ultimately give parents peace of mind since they do
not need to worry about their children hiding things that are important.
2. კომუნიკაცია
3. Listen
Parents need to allow their kids time to talk without interruption and listen to what they have
to say. Learning your child’s thoughts and opinions makes them feel like what they want or feel
matters to you, which in turn makes them feel much closer to you than before. Having a parent
who listens as well instead of only talks and lectures will give your child more encouragement
to listen to you in return.

4. Understand
With listening comes understanding and this means that you have to learn to put yourself in
your child’s shoes and trying to understand how they feel and what they want from what they
tell you. If you are able to understand where your child is coming from, you will be able to close
that generation gap to some extent.
4. გაგება
5. Unconditional Love
Love has a way of crossing boundaries and bringing people together if acted upon. So show
your children how much you love them. This unconditional love and support that they get from
you is very encouraging and makes children more inclined to show that same love and
understanding back.

6. Compromise
People can disagree on things, no matter how close to each other they are. Parents and
children are no different; however, rather than forcing them into your way of thinking or
forcing them to do what you want them to do when they don’t want to, learn to compromise
when possible. There are times when you need to put your foot down with your children, but
coming to a compromise instead of dictating their every move will make them closer to you and
make that generation gap a little smaller.
This article on the generation gap between parents and child is just what you need if you have
been struggling to have a better relationship with your child. Remember that it is important to
understand that they have their own thoughts and opinions and being patient and loving will
help to close the generation gap that causes distance between parents and child

შესაძლებლობის ფარგლებში, კომპრომისზე წასვლა ვისწავლოთ. რაღა თქმა უნდა, არის
მომენტები, როცა ბავშვებთან სიმკაცრის გამოჩენა გვჭირდება, მაგრამ მათთვის თითოეული
