Generation Gap

Probably the new age term which every one wants to use is Generation Gap. Earlier there was a Generation Gap for every 10-15 years but now it seems there is a generation Gap for every 2-3 years and some interesting Observations I made which cause this gap show that this is so called Gap has nothing to do with Individuals but rather with the Economy and the society which has the ultimate influence on it. this i can say because

The factors which define a generation are more to do with the physical objects and things around which an individual has grown or got used to

1) The generation i grew up can be associated with things like Shaktimaan and the Landline phone .

2) For earlier people it could be the commentary of cricket on radio of and so on...

What we can strangely observe is that after 1991 in India is that this Generation gap has been expanding faster than the universe in outer space. This i believe is mostly due to the economic reforms which were brought in like a steroid to boost up our economy but what it did not consider was the human effects of it can do.
With shorter product life cycles and high growth for innovation suddenly the parameters which was used to understand the individuals has slowly been fading. people are so curious to know about Gen Y because they have never been able to study them well.

One of the key components of Gen Y(the generation following Gen X-millenial generation in simple words) is Gratification and to an extent even attrition represents gratification to me.

The individuals are so pressed for Gratification that if one is not providing they don't mind going to another group or an individual to get it. Which can explain the reason why there is a high exodus of top performers and that is because they feel the gratification which is long awaited won't come so being a go getter they move towards it.

The point of generation Gap fits in as we are confused under where we come. When i observe the "KID" who lived next doors in my old campus and the language he speaks ,am shocked as its only laced with profanity and he believes no one understands him in the whole world and this kid is barely 8. this kind of things are a big concern . To sum it up this cartoon speaks volumes

I don't know how much am i true about this topic. Any ways ... your worthy comments are most welcomed. :)

Plzz. feel free to comment.
