Parents and kids today dress alike,listen to the same music,and are friends.Is this a good thing?Sometimes,when Mr.Ballmer and his 16-year-old daughter,Elizabeth,listen to rock music together and talk about interests both enjoy,such as pop culture,he remembers his more distant relationship with his parents when he was a teenager.
“I would never have said to my mom,‘Hey,the new Weezer album is really great.How do you like it?’” says Ballmer.“There was just a complete gap in taste.”
Music was not the only gulf.From clothing and hairstyles to activities and expectations,earlier generations of parents and children often appeared to move in separate orbits.
Today,the generation gap has not disappeared,but it is getting narrow in many families.Conversations on subjects such as sex and drugs would not have taken place a generation ago.Now they are comfortable and common.And parent—child activities,from shopping to sports,involve a feeling of trust and friendship that can continue into adulthood.
No wonder greeting cards today carry the message,“To my mother,my best friend.”
But family experts warn that the new equality can also result in less respect for parents.“There’s still a lot of strictness and authority on the part of parents out there,but there is a change happening,” says Kerrie,a psychology professor at Lebanon Valley College.“In the middle of that change,there is a lot of confusion among parents.”
Family researchers offer a variety of reasons for these evolving roles and attitudes.They see the 1960s as a turning point.Great cultural changes led to more open communication and a more democratic process that encourages everyone to have a say.
“My parents were on the ‘before’ side of that change,but today’s parents,the 40-year-olds,were on the ‘after’ side,” explains Mr.Ballmer.“It’s not something easily accomplished by parents these days,because life is more difficult to understand or deal with,but sharing interests does make it more fun to be a parent now.”

这位同学,我是一段一段给你翻译的,没有用翻译机器,要珍惜我的劳动付出啊
Parents and kids today dress alike,listen to the same music,and are friends.Is this a good thing?Sometimes,when Mr.Ballmer and his 16-year-old daughter,Elizabeth,listen to rock music together and talk about interests both enjoy,such as pop culture,he remembers his more distant relationship with his parents when he was a teenager.
现在的家长与孩子是一种朋友的关系,他们穿着相似的服装,听着相同的音乐,这是一个好的现象吗?有时候,当鲍尔默先生和16岁的女儿伊莉莎白一起听着摇滚乐谈论着共同感兴趣的事情,比如摇滚文化时,他就会想起在自己还是孩子时,和父母的距离有多远.
“I would never have said to my mom,‘Hey,the new Weezer album is really great.How do you like it?’” says Ballmer.“There was just a complete gap in taste.”
鲍尔默先生说：我从来不会和我妈妈谈到：嘿,维泽的新专辑真是棒极了,你觉得呢?这样的话题,因为我们的品味实在是相差太远.
Music was not the only gulf.From clothing and hairstyles to activities and expectations,earlier generations of parents and children often appeared to move in separate orbits.
以前的父母和小孩经常行进在不同的轨道上,不仅表现在音乐品味,从服饰发型到活动愿望都不一样.
Conversations on subjects such as sex and drugs would not have taken place a generation ago.Now they are comfortable and common.And parent—child activities,from shopping to sports,involve a feeling of trust and friendship that can continue into adulthood.
谈论性和毒品这在以前是不可能在父母与孩子间出现的,而现在谈论这些则很自然很普遍.而亲子互动,从购物到运动,都是充满这信任与友爱的,而这种感觉可以持续到孩子成年.
No wonder greeting cards today carry the message,“To my mother,my best friend.”
正因如此,现在我们看到孩子给父母的卡片上写着：给妈妈,我最好的朋友.也就不足为奇了.
But family experts warn that the new equality can also result in less respect for parents.“There’s still a lot of strictness and authority on the part of parents out there,but there is a change happening,” says Kerrie,a psychology professor at Lebanon Valley College.“In the middle of that change,there is a lot of confusion among parents.”
但是家庭专家提出：这种新的父母与子女间的平等也会导致家长得到的尊重降低.
黎巴嫩谷学院的的心理学教授凯瑞表示：在父母对待孩子的方式上,还是有很多严肃以及权威的的成分,但是现在正在发生改变.而在这个改变的过程中,家长们有很多的疑惑
Family researchers offer a variety of reasons for these evolving roles and attitudes.They see the 1960s as a turning point.Great cultural changes led to more open communication and a more democratic process that encourages everyone to have a say.
对正在转变的角色和态度家庭关系研究者门给出了很多的原因.他们认为20世纪60年代是一个转折点.巨大的文化转型带来了此转变,人们以更加民主的方式开展更多交流,鼓励所有人各抒己见.
“My parents were on the ‘before’ side of that change,but today’s parents,the 40-year-olds,were on the ‘after’ side,” explains Mr.Ballmer.“It’s not something easily accomplished by parents these days,because life is more difficult to understand or deal with,but sharing interests does make it more fun to be a parent now.”
鲍尔默先生说到：我的父母是出于转变之前,而现在的这些40多岁的家长们则是处于转变之后.对于现在的父母来说,要达到这样的转变并不简单,毕竟现在的生活更加复杂更加难以处理,但是和孩子拥有共同的兴趣爱好还是能给我们带来更多的乐趣.

家长和孩子的代沟越来越小了,听相同的音乐,是朋友。这是好事还是坏事呢?有时,当某先生鲍尔默和他的16岁的女儿,伊丽莎白,听摇滚音乐结合在一起,谈利益既享受,如流行文化,”他回忆说他和他的父母更遥远的关系,当他还是个十几岁的青少年。 “我不会说到我的妈妈,“嗨,新Weezer专辑真的很棒。你觉得它如何?’”说,鲍尔默。”正好有一个完整的差距在味"。 今天,代沟没有消失,只是变得越来越狭窄的许多家庭。对话科目,如性爱、毒品就不会发生几十年前。现在,他们正在舒适和常见的。和亲子活动,从购物到体育,涉及一种信任和友谊,可以继续到成年。 难怪贺卡今天完成这项任务,”我的母亲,我最好的朋友。” 但家庭专家警告说,新的平等也可以导致较少敬重之情的日子。父母”还有一大堆严密、权威的父母那里的一部分,但有一个变化发生Kerrie说:“在黎巴嫩,心理学教授谷上大学。”在中间的改变,有了很多混乱在父母。”我的父母在'之前'的右边,改变,但今天的父母,“到了40岁后,在' '一边解释道,“先生,鲍尔默。“不是可轻松完成这些的日子,因为父母生活艰难的去理解或解决,但是共享利益确实使它更有趣的是一个父母了。”
