Instead of imposing, pass on experience and learn.

In the hustle and bustle of the 21st century, the generation gap seems to be not only a difference in age but also a gap in the speed of adapting to technology and thinking.

In the fast-paced life of the 21st century, the generation gap seems to be not only a difference in age but also a gap in the speed of adapting to technology and thinking. To build a happy family and a progressive society, it is time for grandparents and parents to make a revolutionary transition: from the role of imposing to the role of imparting experience and actively learning from their children and grandchildren.

Instead of forcing their children to follow a predetermined path, grandparents and parents should act as guides. Their experiences are invaluable resources in ethics, perseverance, interpersonal relationships and the ability to face difficulties. Share stories of failure and success, analyze the past context and encourage your children to find ways to apply those lessons to the modern context.

The young generation grew up with digital technology , the Internet, and AI. Young people are not only good at technology but also have open minds and quick reactions. Grandparents and parents must realize that, in many new fields, their children and grandchildren are the best "teachers". Learning how to use technology, grasp information, or even new ways of thinking from their children and grandchildren not only helps grandparents and parents not fall behind, but also serves as the strongest emotional bridge with the younger generation.

The ultimate goal is to create harmony in the family. Adults respect the choices of their children. Children respect the core values ​​and profound life experiences of adults. Family conversations are no longer one-way (adults speak - children must listen) but a two-way dialogue where grandparents, parents and children all learn and develop. That is the key to maintaining traditional values ​​while fully embracing the advancement of the digital age, helping the whole family develop sustainably and happily together./.
