"The Struggle to be an All American Girl"
Parents grew up in different generations and times compared to when their kids grew up. A lot can change in a few years and even more changes over a few decades. Popular trends and social norms become different with time, as does viewpoints and opinions. Different people face different struggles and obstacles, it's not always the same for everyone. Children don't always share the same childhood experiences as their parents which changes their perspective on things. As they grow older kids sometimes feel less connected to their backgrounds than their parents. This happens especially if   a family has moved away from a hometown or participate in less traditions. Traditions can sometimes fade as their passed down from generation to generation.

Eventually children begin to mature and look for their own identity nd how they do things. They don't always want an adults opinion, they want to find their own ways. Students may open up to learning from their parents experiences by making a few mistakes themselves first. Sometimes mistakes are the best lessons. Sometimes it's best to learn things on your own. Eventually students will become interested in the experiences their parents have had and they'll learn from them.
