During our Parent Grandparent Interview we learned a lot about the times of adolescence then. The adolescence then and now have changed dramatically. Many shocking events has changed the minds of parents to having curfews and not letting children and teens out. Safety changes the lives of many people.
Back then there were wars but depending on which area you live it can affect your whole entire life. Some people were isolated from any major events it won't affect you. Back then parents were strict but do to the area that is safe children can go back home at any time. If the area was unsafe there surely would be curfews. These days parents are really caring but the world is really unsafe so there is nothing that anyone can do so we have curfews.
Adolescence Then had opportunities to socialize with friends and hang out and they took advantage of that and they didn't stay at home but went out to be more active. Teenagers these days all stay at home inactive and socialize through phones and some are just anti-social and plays games all day long.
Safety is a number one priority and this is what changed the adolescence then and the adolescence now. The world changes in many ways and this is one way of how it changes.

Well, yeah I agree that we have curfews because it's more dangerous out there, and our parents don't want us to get hurt. But I wouldn;t say parents are more caring NOW than they used to be. Some parents these days give too MUCH rules to their children, therefore making their own child feel pressured, which can lead to some serious problems.
ReplyDeleteEven though parents back then were a little mroe strict, they didn't really set rules or curfews for their kids because they knew their children were safe. That's why when sometimes we ask our parents about their teen years, they say they were happy teens. Because they were never tied down.
Overall, great job on the prompt!
Ikmal, remember, there are several wars going on throughout the world today that efect the way we live. I think issues of personal safety have definitely changed, especially as the world and our cities become more crowded. Interesting post, Ikmal.
