The past decades have witnessed the remarkable development in technology. People use cell-phone or e-mail, replacing the letter, to get connection with others, and people surf the internet, instead of going to library, to search the information they need. The world keeps changing and many people find it is difficult to move fast enough to catch up with the majority, especially the elder. Their minds still stay in the less development era that to some extent they cannot judge things in a proper way. Thus I endorse that the advice from our grandparents is of little use for their grandchildren. The reasons are as follows.
A computer enables people to get everything they need in a second, which grandparents may think it is not as comprehensive as the information searched in library. With the advent of the information era, all most every medium want to spread out their news and reports in an efficient way, thus the internet is their wisdom choice. Once information is posed on the internet, it can be spread in many parts of the world. Therefore people can get everything they desire through the computer. Furthermore, compared with the internet which offers people latest news, the information in the library is be out of date. Publishing a book or to printing a newspaper takes long period of time to be accessible to us.
Studying abroad offers people an opportunity to learn advanced technology and knowledge, while grandparents may not agree because they think that their children are too young to live in another country alone. For instance, as the increasing number of foreign students being enrolled in American university, many schools have set international students office to offer assistance for the international students. This office just like a rescue station for students from other country, thus students can get the solution to almost all the problems they are facing. Therefore, studying abroad is not as tough as the grandparents’ words, instead even is of more convenience and safety. It isn’t a wise choice to abort further studying because of students’ grandparents’ improper advice.
Admittedly, we can learn the Chinese traditional culture from our grandparents, like being economical. In China, the elder generation prefers to save all their money in the bank for future. In fact, as the rapid development has taken place in economy, people earn much more than the elder generation does, it is well accepted to spend some money on enjoying the life. For example, people, under great pressure nowadays, prefer to take a vocation for relaxing, instead of putting all of money in bank. Not to mention the devaluation, making it unadvisable to save all the money.
Taking into account all these factors, I strongly believe that grandparents’ advice is of little use to their grandchildren.
