Broken bridge between generations: why 90% of adult children keep a distance with parents

work, life, life. And the baby at this time grows up. And so, one day, we notice that calls from it become lesser and meetings – more formal. Why? But is everything really? Let's hear what psychologists say about this.
Why do children are moving away? The child remembers not the number of toys or pay for tutors, but joint evenings for the book, support in the moments of weakness and simple: “I love you, regardless of your evaluations and achievements.” If the family only rules the authority of parents and the words of the children are reduced to “not override”, “you are still small to have an opinion”, then this child will grow up with the belief that they are not heard in this family. And if they do not hear – then why talk?
it is also worth considering that we often repeat the behavioral models of our parents. If there were no warm conversations in our childhood, a genuine interest in our experiences, then we will probably pass the same cold to our children. And they, in turn, want to warm up somewhere else.
