TEXT: FORGET THE GENERATION GAP

   Don t believe that teenagers and adults argue all the time – teenagers and their grandparents get on very well together. Researchers at the University of Glasgow have done a study on the relationship between teenagers and their older relatives.

    They interviewed 75 young people aged 10-19, and 73 older people aged 50-70. It shows that grandparents play very important role in families. They look after children, and they give a link to the past. They can also help when there are disagreements between teenagers and parents.

     Most people believe that only very young children have a close relationship with grandparents. This is because they often take care of the children, when parents are at work or out in the evening. The study shows that when children become teenagers, they are still very close to their grandparents. Although teenagers spend more time with friends than with their grandparents, many young people say that their grandparents are very important to them. So, in what ways are grandparents important?

- They are good listeners. It is easy for teenagers to share their problems and express their feelings with their grandparents.

- They can provide financial help in small ways, like pocket money, and in bigger ways, like school fees.

- They help young people develop respect and responsibility. They also help communication in the family.

- They know a lot about a families history and so can help teenagers understand about the past.

- And what are the advantage for old people?

- They can fun with their grandchildren and take part in different activities.

- They can stay active and take part of the modern world.

- They often learn about modern technology so they can keep up with their grandchildren.

    There is a lot of negative news about the generation gap, so it is good to hear that older people and teenagers can be good friends.
