Reasons My Generation Differs from My Parent’s Generation There are numerous changes between my generation and my parents’ generations. My generation’s thinking is related to our nation as well as the universe, but my parent’s generation was limited to their household and native country. Today, we exist in a world that is regularly changing, so we must adapt ourselves to relating with people from different generations. Taking a closer look at both generations, the major differences between the two generations includes: communication, education, and lifestyle. First, is communication, communication is one of the major differences between people in my generation and people in my parents' generation is how they communicate. People in my generation are used to connecting with each other almost immediately. For example, if young people want to contact their friends that live in different countries, they usually contact them by using their mobile phones. Teenagers in the new generation spend most of their time chatting with their friends on their mobile phones or chatting online more than doing anything else. On the other hand, people from my parents' generation are accustomed to writing letters to contact friends that are far away. Furthermore, they like to deal with other people face to face. All in all, people in my generation communicate differently than people in the older generation. Second, Education is another significant difference between individuals in my generation and my parents' generation is education. Most people in my generation tend to have at least a bachelor’s degree. In other words, they cannot work until they have an appropriate education. In contrast, people in the older generation did not have a lot of opportunities to study. In the past, only rich people would have the opportunities to study. Also, people in the older generation focused more on working than studying. Thus, people in my generation have a higher education than people in my parents' generation. And to be more specific, my generation in Ghana can study abroad. Our government gives scholarship to almost everyone in any fields. This is in contrast with my parents' generation when the scholarship program was only for the people who had an elevated position in the military. The last difference between people that are my age and people that are my parents' age is lifestyle. People in my generation enjoy easier lives. For example, when some young people graduate from university, they may not have to work immediately. They can sit around at home
