EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
A generation gap is commonly perceived to refer to differences between generations that cause conflict and complicate communication, creating a "gap." Generation gap refers to parent child disagreement, contradiction and divergence in certain matters regarding their attitudes, values, closeness, and communication. This research was planned to study the causes of generation gap as well as the responsibility of the parents and the children to reduce this gap.
Based on data analysis this research concluded that the major causes of generation gap was unawareness, perception, authority, attitudinal problem, inspiration from western culture, high or low economic status of parents, sharing, association, affection, single parental families etc. When the parents impose their advice and ideas on children then this will not play an active role in reducing the generation gap. But the separation, divorce, remarriage, authority, religious believes, educational choice, technological changes that cause the children to think of their parents to be old-fashioned.
As this gap increasing day by day we feel uncomfortable with parents for outing we think our parents are so conservative. but it just a misunderstanding because our parents are not so bored as they like. They also want to enjoy their life but they can’t do because of us. So there are many recommendations which help to overcome this gap.
