Evelyn/ "They don't connect". Does this reflect the relationship between adults and adolescents today?

Adults and adolescents tend to share a common goal in chasing their dreams despite being in different fields. Such a goal will push both adults and adolescents harder in order to excel in their respective fields. Hence, they will share a common understanding in the importance and need for individual success. This can be seen in today's society where parents and children tend to root and urge each other on in their own way, proving moral and emotional support. Some may argue that this need for individual success will will escalate into an obsession breeding self-centered individuals that wil stop at nothing in order to achieve their goals. This is to say that individuals in society may in fact be pulling away from each other. However, while such practices do happen, they are a mere minority. Most of society do care about other individuals while trying their best to achieve their goals. This can be seen in school where teachers do their best to support and nurture the youth in reaching their goals in life be it sports, academics or arts even though their primary job is to teach. Many companies that are run by adults also do offer scholarships and grants to teenagers with the talent and drive that may or may not be in the company's field of expertise. The fact that such groups in society are willing to give up their time, effort and money in order to help others improve proves that society is indeed not self-consumed in the obsession to succeed but rather using it as a common ground where individuals young and old do connect.
