INTRODUCTION

This research report is based on the interviews taken by our

group members. We interviewed five grandparents, five parents

and five teenagers(of our age).

The ones withA little bit Silver in their hair

and Gold in their Heart!

GRANDPARENTS

GRANDPARENTS

The senior most male

member was the bread

earner of the family.

Girls and women were not

given importance.

Women were not allowed

to work.

Some continued to

follow old customs and

traditions while the

others tried to change

their way of living.

SIMILARITIES DIFFERENCES

PARENTS

The ones who are just like stars that guide us with their

love and care…

PARENTS

Family planning was

taken into consideration.

Women along with men

became the bulk of the

family income.

Girls were given the

liberty to study. However,

this idea was resented by

some.

Some people treated

women equally whereas

the others didn’t.

TEENAGERS

The ones who aren’t to be moulded but

to be Unfolded….

TEENAGERS

There are no differences in the

upbringing of boys and girls, and

girls enjoy similar liberty as the

boys in the family.

Most children agreed to it that

women have got a lot of freedom

as compared to the previous

decade.

Everyone rather agreed that

girls have rather excelled ahead

of boys when it comes to

education and other fields these

days.

A few children said that women

belonging to the upper-middle

class and upper class of the

society received liberty, and the

ones belonging to the lower

classes or ones living in rural

India didn’t.

A couple of individuals

mentioned that even though boys

and girls are studying together

without any differences, there are

a few orthodox schools which are

reserved for either boys or girls.

ANSWERS OF TEENAGERS

SIMILARITIES DIFFERENCES

FAMILY PLANNING WASN’T

SEEN IN THIS GENERATION.

MEN WERE CONSIDERED

SUPERIOR; WOMEN DID NOT

RECEIVE MUCH IMPORTANCE.

WOMEN DID THE

HOUSEHOLD WORK WHILE

MEN DID MORE OF PHYSICAL

WORK.

FAMILY PLANNING WAS TAKEN

INTO CONSIDERATION DURING

PARENTS’ GENERATION.

POSITION OF WOMEN

CHANGED; THEY WERE

ALLOWED TO WORK.

PARENTS TRIED TO CHANGE

OLD CUSTOMS AND TRADITIONS

WHICH WERE FOLLOWED BY

THE GRANDPARENTS.

CONCLUSION

THERE IS A DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE THREE GENERATIONS. THE

PRINCIPLE “TO CHANGE WITH CHANGING TIMES” IS CLEARLY SEEN BY THE

TRANISION IN THE WAY OF TREATING WOMEN. MEN WERE THE ONLY

FINANCIAL SUPPORT TO THE FAMILY IN GRANDPARENTS’ GENERATION BUT

THIS SITUATION CHANGED DURING THE PARENTS’ GENERATION.

PEOPLE WERE READY TO ALTER THEIR CUSTOMS AND TRADITIONS IN

PARENTS GENERATION IN ORDER TO FIND A PLACE IN THE CHANGING

SOCIETY. HOWEVER THIS WAS NOT OBSERVED IN GRANDPARENTS’

GENERATION.

CONCLUSION

THOUGH THE SOCIETY IS EXPERIENCING DRASTIC CHANGES, THERE

ARE A FEW ORTHODOX MEMBERS WHO ARE A BIT RELUCTANT TO

CHANGE.

DURING GRANDPARENTS’ GENERATION PEOPLE WERE

TRUSTWORTHY . NOW, EVEN THE SAFETY OF WOMEN CANNOT BE

ENSURED.

THE GOVERNMENT IS TAKING SUCCESSFUL STEPS AND INITIATIVES

FOR WOMEN-EMPOWERMENT AND THE POSITION OF WOMEN IN THE

SOCIETY IS RISING WITH LEAPS AND BOUNDS IN ALL SPHERES, FROM

COMMERCE TO ADMINISTRATION AND SERVICES.

Alone We Can Do So Less….

Together We Can Do So Much…..
