Mothers and daughters are close. I know this because I am the daughter of a mother, and my mom is my best friend. But how do two generations live their lives differently? How does the world change every time something new pops up? And how are these generational gaps created in the first place? Have you ever wondered what it would be like to grow up with your mother as a close friend rather than just a parent? This blog will explore these topics.
A Tale of Two Generations
It’s interesting to think about how these two generations are different. We all know that in the past, mothers were primarily responsible for taking care of their children while staying in the home. Today, mothers work in the workforce and many are also caring for their grandchildren. This creates a new dynamic where mothers are continuously juggling family life with their careers, which poses challenges when it comes to raising kids.
A lot has changed in these 50 years. Take for example the introduction of cell phones. Fifty years ago, there were no cell phones or social media making them seem like futuristic inventions that would never be used by people today. Digital marketing is changing the way that people interact with businesses and it’s changing how we age as well. With so many generational gaps, we’re living our lives differently than our mothers did and we’re creating new generational gaps as well!
My Mom And I
Have Different Lives
Growing up, I always knew my mom was my best friend. I never wanted to keep secrets from her or hide anything from her because she was the person who mattered the most in my life. And it’s because she was there for me when I needed her most. But while it was pretty simple for us to spend time together when we were both living in the same city, that changed when I went off to college.
At first, everything was pretty typical. We would talk on the phone every other day and Skype whenever possible. But then something happened that completely changed how we lived our lives apart: She got a smartphone! Suddenly, she had an internet connection with me 24/7 and could Skype without any issues. The only problem? That meant her work hours were now global instead of just local to me which meant she was up early and staying up late.
This change also meant that our conversations became less about what we were up to in our lives and more about what we’re doing right at that moment which oftentimes includes waiting for something to happen like waiting for food or traveling somewhere or just sitting around bored which is not very interesting at all! It also made it harder for us to connect over shared events
Sometimes we wear matching mommy and me outfits and go for outings and enjoy lunch and dinner together. This helps us make our bonding even stronger.
The Gaps Between Generations
It’s not just the physical distance that separates the two generations, but also differences in experiences. Some of these differences might include:
-Growing up in a different time period
-A change in roles when it comes to parenting
-Different life events (i.e., marriages, divorces)
-Different technology available at their disposal
One thing is for sure: every generation has its own set of challenges and triumphs! And when it comes to bridging the generational gap, there are ways for moms and daughters to successfully work together. We’ll explore these topics in-depth in the next section
How This Affects Our Lives?
As a daughter, I grew up with my mother as a close friend. She was the person I leaned on for everything from an emergency haircut to childhood crush advice.
My mom and I have always been close because we grew up together. We were able to do things that other mothers and daughters couldn’t do. But, there are times when our relationship can be tricky too.
We both have different ideas about the world and what the best decisions should be. And this causes some disagreements at times.
When it comes to generational gaps, this is one of the most common ones: parents and their children disagreeing about what should happen next in life. The generation that has “life experience” usually wants their child to take a safer approach while their child wants to take more risks in life. It’s all about taking chances and making your own decisions—the best decision for you, not necessarily for everyone else.
Conclusion
It is important to understand that the generations are not just different in their behaviors, but also in their values. If you are the parent of a millennial, it is likely that you are facing some challenges. The younger generation will have different ideas about what is important.
