Forty years ago, in an era of far more overt conflict between the generations than there is now, a slightly smaller share (74%) of the public said yes to the same question.2 What could explain the similarities in the two numbers in the face of such differences in the two eras? This latest survey appears to solve the mystery. Yes, there are big differences between young and old today in their values, attitudes and behaviors, but no, these differences haven’t created conflicts between the generations. To borrow a phrase, the generations appear to have found a way to disagree without being disagreeable.

In very many sociological studies, social scientist attempt to explain certain aspect of family lives albeit culture, history, time and place. These studies outcome are important and contribute to family life in a big way, at the very least they attempt to provide some guidance on how families within different cultures do things. As important as the finding of these studies are they must not be looked upon as a “one size fits all” model. They do not always apply to every family and often time what make sense in one culture, would be totally absurd in another.
