1) In today's world, the generation gap continues to exist in many families, which can significantly weaken family bonds.
In my opinion, living in an extended family is the best way to bridge this gap.
First, living in an extended family can provide numerous opportunities for different generations to exchange ideas,
values, and experiences on a regular basis. For example, when children face difficulties in their daily lives, elder family
members can offer advice or share ideas to help them overcome their challenges. Through these daily exchanges, the
generation gap will be bridged.
Moreover, when living together, different generations will have more time to collaborate and learn from one another.
For instance, children can help their dad in tending the garden or assist their mom in preparing and cooking a meal. That
will help develop a strong relationship within the family.
In conclusion, I firmly believe that having an extended family can bridge the generation gap by sharing thoughts and
experiences on a daily basis and spending more time collaborating and learning from one another.
