Read the following passage about family conflicts and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the best answer to each of the following questions from 23 to 30. Family Conflicts The generation gap is understood as a broad difference between one generation and another, especially between young people and their parents. Such a difference usually leads to numerous family conflicts. It can be seen that, however old their children are, parents still see them as small kids and keep in mind that their offspring are too young to protect themselves reasonably. Therefore, they tend to make a great effort to help their children to discover the outside world. However, they forget that when children grow up, they want to be more independent and develop their own identity by creating their own opinions, thoughts, styles and values about life. One common issue that drives conflicts is the selection of music. While teens are keen on rap music which tries to catch up with the youth trends, parents who value classical music believe that those kinds of music violate the mood and cause poor human sense. It becomes worse when they decide on different TV channels. Some programs can be educational, but others show violent behaviors or fear. That is the reason why parents want to limit their children's screen time. Another example is the interest in choosing schools or careers between parents and teenagers. Young people are told that they have the world at their feet and that future opportunities are just waiting for them to seize. However, their parents try to impose their choices regardless of their children's preferences. Indeed, conflicts between parents and children are an everlasting family phenomenon. It seems that the best way to solve the matter is open communication to create mutual trust and understanding.
