In the last century, the family relationships between parents and children have changed a lot. The children are becoming more independent. But.. Why?That's what our new article talks about.
The main cause of this rupture with family home is the technology revolution which has been working as a “freedom door”. The teenagers are able to get more information through the computer than through a usual conversation with their parents.
The good point is that when they're connect into the Internet, they can be interested in lot of things at the same time, and this can be useful to expand their knowledge area. Another advantage is the contact with people of all parts of the world, therefore, learning with the differences, and being open to new ideas and thoughts.
We can say that the internet can be good if used in a correct form. The parents must control the time that their sons and daughters spend in the computer by creating a 'law'. That 'law' have to be respect, because it's a parental obligation put limits and show their kids how to 'pave their own paths'. For example: when parets set a maximum time to use the tecnological device, in order to make a focus time, which can be used to study or to read some books.
However, the family conversation can be impaired, because the ficction world is much easier and more attractive than the real world, where our choices have consequences in our future. Too complicated. Furthermore, some psychologists, who were interviewed by VEJA, think that teenagers are precocious nowadays. The alienation caused by the electronic devices can be the start of an argument: Teenagers X Parents.
According to VEJA, arguments like this should be held in a calm place, without anger's feelings. It's a mistake to argue with teenagers, because it don't make things easier and it is not a real solution to the problem. Sometimes, if this kind of this arguments increase in a large scale, it can affect all the family. Parents try to put limits, but if the teenager don't have any ideas of the consequences for him, it can cause a huge misundestanding, which results in parental divorced
This term had a pejorative way in the past, because it was believed that children of divorced parents were condemned to suffering and unhappiness. At the same time, real life has proved a very different situation. The number of men and women who make a sincere effort, and usually succeeds, to educate and give affection to the children of their first marriage of his new companion have been increasing. In many cases, children of divorced parents tend to develop social relationships, that are rich and creative.
To conclude, all of this facts are changes caused by the new society evolution and the only solution is: We have to adapt to them!
