There's a HUGE generation gap going on right now.
And I honestly have a very hard time to relate even to those, who are say 5 - 10 years younger than me.
Be it the
- completely different socioeconomical situation we were raised in
- different role / impact of mass media that are taking over more and more space that used to be reserved to real friends and real people
- different role models and standards of social behaviour / "cool" meaning more than "right"
- constant media pressure to raise the youth consumation ready, the everlasting dream to raise new consumers that will buy more and ask less
- "immediate satisfaction" factor destroying the ability to actually concentrate
etc.
Maybe that I'm just too cynical and too old schoolish myself, but one thing is for sure - they're different.
