A famous person once said that the pace of life is getting faster and faster, and the feelings between people are getting weaker and weaker.
In the past, we would also spend our time on "dealing with people". Nowadays, we have long felt less about interpersonal relationships. This is true for outsiders, and for neighbors and relatives.
Middle-aged and elderly people are fine, at least they have traditional ideas and are relatively nostalgic. However, the descendants of these people, such as those born in the 1985s, 1990s, or 2000s, have no such idea.
There is a problem on the Internet. With the development of the times, why are the feelings of each generation gradually fading? We just need to look at the performance of each generation to know. 70s generation is keen on interacting with relatives and friends. The 1980s generation is in the middle, so it doesn’t matter whether they are in contact or not. The 1990s and 2000s are even more "outliers" and don’t know who their relatives are.
is not so much a "unlike" as it is to say that they are all products of the times. In a fast-paced living environment, they are already precocious and see through the world through various channels, so they will have no feelings for the so-called "feelings".
So, the "family tide" appeared. And the key role in this is that there are many younger generations who are willing to live as the last generation of their families.

What is the "family tide"?
The trend of closure in big cities has long appeared, so many people will say that people in big cities are more indifferent. has more material things in their eyes, but there is no so-called feelings and family affection.
In today's urbanization, there are more and more high-rise buildings in , and people's hearts are becoming more and more suppressed. , and their feelings may have been worn out.
Many people will say that rural people are quite concerned about emotions. Will they also usher in the "family tide"? It is a pity that rural people today are experiencing a tide of divorce.
In the past, transportation was inconvenient, and perhaps rural people lived in the same place. Nowadays, the transportation between is convenient, and there are more young and middle-aged people working in big cities. After they have come into contact with the city, they naturally do not want to return to the countryside.
Even if you return to the countryside during festivals, you will no longer have the same harmonious atmosphere as before, only the so-called "intrigue" and the "comparison" that everyone hates and likes. You show off your luxury car, he shows off his house, and show off his most realistic side of human nature.
After much experience of these things, my parents left. The young and middle-aged people who entered the city to work no longer interacted with relatives and friends in the countryside. What's more, everyone goes their separate ways, so when will they meet?
Foreseeable situation is that 's future family affection will become more and more indifferent, just like boiled water, tasteless.

Young people become the last generation of their families and will make the "family cut off the trend" develop to the peak.
As parents born in the 1990s or 2000s, you can ask your children if they have the wish to pass on the family line and can they recognize all their relatives in the family?
I believe their answers are all similar. They have no idea about inheriting the family line, and they cannot recognize the relatives of the family. They have met cousins several times, but have no contact or communication.
The new generation of young people has a characteristic, that is, they advocate "individualism" without the previous "groupism". You should know that all the family affection in this world is nourished by "groupism".
You have children, and they have children. These two generations understand each other and strengthen their connections, and family affection can still be maintained. Now that you have no children, and he has no children, there is no need to understand and connect with each other.
The essence of "transmitting family traditions" actually has two points. First, it is to pass on the bloodline, and second, it is to pass on the family affection. Once the matter of inheriting the family line is abandoned, the inheritance of bloodline and family affection will be terminated.
Of course, the above ideas are all traditional ideas and do not conform to the free thoughts of the younger generation. Perhaps, this is inevitable for the transformation of small peasant society to the information society.

Most of the contemporary young people are "only children". Their concepts will not be closed or traditional. For them, being a good person is the most important thing.
Especially in the matter of "becoming the last generation of the family", many parents do not understand that people are going to get married and live in family affection. Why do you have to be alone for a lifetime? The reason for the problem of
is complicated. In general, it is actually economic and material pressure, the transformation of human nature, and the situation in the general environment that leads to the emergence of this problem.
Take 996 for example. Ordinary people don’t even have time to rest and don’t even have time to find a partner . Then how could they take the family affection to heart?
Take houses as an example. There are many young people with high education who go to big cities to work hard after graduating from college. will spend their whole life doing it for that pigeon cage . Who would put their minds elsewhere?
Take human nature as an example. Everyone knows that the current is unreliable, and the risk of getting married is very high. Therefore, many people would rather be single than have offspring than cause a lot of trouble.
...
Of course, the above reasons are just the tip of the iceberg. The real problem with is that the pace of life is too fast, exceeding the ability of people to bear. At the end, the result of the extreme of things happening.
