Conflict

Conflict Fidel Castro states: “A revolution is not a bed of roses. A revolution is a struggle between the future and the past” Being in conflict with my parents regarding some issues is part of a healthy family life. Miscommunication could arise due to the generation gap where my ideas and feelings toward certain matters could be drastically different from my parent’s. A simple example is my parents accuse me of abusing technology and spending a lot of time on my PC, phone and social network websites instead of communicating and helping out. I listened carefully and respectfully to what they had to say but I convinced them that the world has changed and I need to keep posted with the technological changes as this is part of the new society and I have to catch up with it. Through communication and sharing of ideas and explaining my point of view clearly and logically, they were convinced that the world has changed and I promised to put in more efforts to help out to restore this technology family life balance.
