i've always wondered about this: why do the old and the young always clash? don't they have a common ground? and to think the old were once young and the young will soon become old...

take your mother for example. she always scolds you and nitpicks at whatever you're doing. but come to think about it, when she was young she must have done those things too. well, let's just say that she doesn't want you to make the same mistakes she did, getting mad at you isn't the right way to tell you that you're wrong. in fact, a nice explanation said in the coolest way would probably be a better learning experience than a verbal sparring match...

mmm...
