The generation Gap When I was a teenager, many adults called us " Aliens", because they had trouble understanding young people thoughts. But I was thinking we are not so complicated why can't they understand us or they don't want to understand us? I thought at the time. I promised to never become an adult like people around me, especially, like my mother. However, kids are growing up as they are seeing their parents and learning many things from them. After I became a mother, I thought I would like to show them something like my parents did to me. My motivation of studying English came from it. But contrary my intention, my kids just use me as an easy dictionary when they work out with their homework. That is the reality. Recently, I don't understand my own teenage kids thinking. Even though I was the owner of young peoples clothing store and know about young people's fashion. We ague about many things and never agree. I often think why they don't listen to me? why they don't notice that they waste of time and spend a lot of time to fix their hairstyles instead of steady? Who cares about so much such small things about them? Yes, I completely fall in the gap of the generation while I was assuming that my soul and spirit are younger than my real age. When I turned on the TV and saw young entertainers, when I listen other teen's story from my friends, I feel there is big thing standing between my generation and current teens. It is definitely called "Generation Gap" If our generation was alien, I would call them "super monster" I finely realized I had become just like my mother but I hope they find out an importance in studying new things or keep studying and it'll makes their lives more enrichment in the future.

Hi.. generation gap is a natural phenomena. It helps us understanding the world better through their experience in life. When we were young, our elders taught us. the same pass on.
