This is a 9 page paper discussing the generation gap today between parents and adolescents. The concept of the generation gap became the most prevalent in the 1960s during the cultural revolution when the values and beliefs of the younger generation were considered drastically different from those of their parents. While the generation gap was said to have diminished slightly during the 1970s and 1980s, the generation gap began to broaden once again starting in the 1990s when adolescents were seen to be more disconnected from society; more cynical or negative about people and institutions than previous generations; and, adolescents had moved in a more liberal direction in regards to civil liberties, modern gender roles, racial equality and secularism. While most research has reported that today’s youth feel that they are isolated with little guidance, some research also reports that adolescents value guidance when it is received except in regards to cultural factors such as music and fashion. This also adds to some theories which advocate that generation gaps are not so much the result of age differences but are actual cultural gaps because of environmental differences in regards to “economic conditions, government, styles, fads, media, technology and changing values”.
