Does the Younger Generation Know Best?
The Younger Generation Knows Best
Old people are always saying that the young are not what they were.The same comment is made from generation to generation and it is always true.It has never been truer than it is today.The young are better educated.They have a lot more money to spend and enjoy more freedom.They grow up more quickly and are not so dependent on their parents.They think more for themselves and do not blindly accept the ideals of their elders.Events which the older generation remembers vividly are nothing more than past history.This is as it should be.Every new generation is different from the one that preceded it.Today the difference is very marked indeed.
The old always assume that they know best far the simple reason that they have lieen around a bit longer.They don't like to feel that their values are being questioned or threatened.And this is precisely what the young are doing.They are questioning the assumptions of their elders and disturbing their complacency.They take leave to doubt that the older generation has created the best of all possible worlds.What they reject more than anything is conformity.
Office hours,for instance,are nothing more than enforced slavery.Wouldn't people work best if they were given complete freedom and responsibility?And what about clothing?Who said that all the men in the world should wear drab grey suits and convict haircuts?If we turn our minds to more serious matters,who said that human differences can best be solved through conventional polities or by violent means?Why have the older generation so often used violence to solve their problems?Why are they so unhappy and guilt-ridden in their pexsonal lives,so obsessed with mean ambitions and the desire to amass more and more material possessions?Can anything be right with the ratrace?Haven't the old lost touch with all that is important in life?
These are not questions the older generation can shrug off lightly.Their record over the past forty years or so hasn' t been exactly spotless.Traditionally,the young have turned to their elders for guidance.Today,the situation might be reversed.The old - if they are prepared to admit it-coutd learn a thing or two from their children.One of the biggest lessons they could learn is that enjoyment is not "sinful".
Enjoyment is a principle one could apply to all aspects of life.It is surely not wrong to enjoy your work and enjoy your leisure; to shed restricting inhibitions.It is surely not wrong to live in the present rather than in the past or future.This emphasis orr the present is only to be expected because the young have grown up under the shadow of the bomb:the constant threat of complete annihilation.This is their glorious heritage.Can we be surprised that they should so often question the sanity of t.he generaiion that bequeathed it?

1.Problems of the Young
More than 20 Chinese and American experts discovered that young people of both countries are facing the same probiems of economic and social pressures and lack of confidence.
Wayne Meisel,director of the Campus Outreach Opportunity League of Minnesota University,said that under economic pressure American young people have to work hard and most students have to take part-time work in order to support themselves.
"Young people today,he said,"are stereotyped as apathetic,selfcentred,and concerned only with making money and getting ahead."
In these circumstances,he said,young people lack confidence,whicb was not the case in the 1960s when young Americans thought themselves capable of doing anything.
In spite of the different conditions in China,Li Xuequan,director of the,higher education section of the All-China Youth Federation,said Chinese young people are alsc facing economic pressure and are worried about iriflation and corruption.
Trading has appeared in many Chinese universities as students with something to sell try to make money on campus.
Moreover,Li said,college students have begun to doubt whether what they are learning in class will help them find work,as many businesses totally ignore students of pure theory.
So people describe students as "a lost generation tired of study",regardless
of the causes in society that are shaking their confidence.
In order to resolve these problems,the Chinese and American experts agreed that youth organizations should call on the whole of society to create favourable conditions for the healthy growth of young people,as well as to enconrage them to meet the urgent needs of society and to challenge the assumption that young people are apathetic and uncaring.
Meisel said that since last year he has sent letters of ."challenge to youth" to many young people,urging them to commit themselves to addressing such needs as feeding the hungry,housing the homeless,educating the illiterate,consoling the lonely and sick,serving the elderly,and preserving the environment.
The letter says:"Through service,we touch the lives of others and enrich our own."

Is the younger generation becoming more ignorant towards their elders
Nowadays ,all the young one want to live life on their own and be free.I am from India where such tradition was not there but its slowly creeping in ...everyday i read newspaper and the elders are becoming soft targets for robbers as they can't defend themselves .
so is it right for the younger generation to leave their parents out n cold and start a new family some place else cause this might be case that same thing will happen to us when we get old !
