First text.
I get along well with my parents, but sometimes we can't avoid conflicts, misunderstand each other and can't solve a problem. I have problems with Mom during cleaning, washing dished and etc. And I have a generation gap with my father. Every gap lives in its time and solves its problems. Children grow up, learning about other cultures and using other technologies. Our world changes everyday, but our parents' point of view often doesn't change at all, causing generation gap. We must discuss what goes wrong to settle matters and set up good relations.
