Parents, the church, teachers and employers think that they understand youngsters because they, too, were young once. But adults no longer live in the world that existed when they were teenagers. We may occupy the same space, home, classroom, or office but we live in different worlds. And these worlds often collide. We've moved in one century from a 'built to last' to a 'throwaway' society. No wonder age differences are so vast. In this book you will discover your generation and those of the people who make up your life. Once you understand what makes them, and you, tick, the, 'gen gap' begins to shrink. Fasten your seatbelt for a generational roller coaster ride-you may never think the same way again! aAdult aSouth Africa 2Conflict of generations Generations Intergenerational relations Social change Social history History 1900-1999 aHistory. aSue Grant-Marshall, Compleat, Flame Design, Cape Town, CTP Book Printers, Cape Town
