Disagreements in generation, lifestyle, and outlook between parents and children can lead to inevitable conflicts. Accordingly, have delicate behaviors to become a bridge connecting family members.
Listen and share
When conflicts arise, listening and sharing clear views will help parents and children understand each other better. A frank exchange will help both sides quickly relieve any problems and propose a suitable solution for each member.
Choose the right time to chat
Choosing the right time to chat should be when both sides are calm, controlling their emotions and words. This will help parents and children easily resolve conflicts effectively.
Keep quiet when emotions are at their peak because this is the time when it is easy to say or act that harms each other.
Establish clear boundaries
Establishing a clear boundary between family members is also one of the measures that can be considered. Parents and children should not interfere deeply in their private lives, as well as respect personal decisions.
Parents can give advice to their children or vice versa, but making the decision will be up to each person.
Understanding and understanding
Generation gaps are one of the common causes of conflict between parents and children. Therefore, show sympathy and understanding to help parents and children have more connection and share everything with each other.
Don't be afraid to show your concern
Children, even though they are busy with work, should pay attention to their parents such as asking about their health, buying gifts, or simply spending time eating together or helping with housework. This will help 2 generations in the same family bond, creating a sense of love more.
