Even representatives of the older generation can note that raising grandchildren is much more difficult than it was with their parents.
Modern children are really very unique.
However, not everyone understands what these difficulties are related to.
What are the 3 reasons?
Modern children are much smarter than their age.
Thanks to the fact that parents invest a lot of effort into the education and development of their children, children really grow up very developed and smart beyond their years.
Therefore, it is more difficult to make them agree with adults without explanation. If earlier it was possible to simply use one's authority, now the child needs to be provided with a worthy argument.
Technologies
Children are able to develop independently with the help of modern technologies, so they will always find a way to make life difficult for their parents.
Some may seek advice on forums, others actively study the responsibilities of parents (they, of course, skip the part about their responsibilities).
Modern parents are much softer and more democratic
Even 50 years ago, no one thought about psychological trauma of a child and the basics of pedagogy. Modern parents have received a good education, experts note.
Adults actively study specialized publications and advice. Because parents become too soft, the issue of discipline may "limp". Therefore, it is important to find a balance.
