Hello!

My name is Ginny Helmandollar. I am a senior from Louisa County High School and the Blue Ridge Virtual Governor's School program.  A component of my Senior Project is to give back to the community, so I have chosen to begin a podcast called Us, Now. In each episode, I have a discussion with various guests from around my school about relevant social issues high school students face today.

In today's sixth episode, we will be talking about the generation gap. There is often a significant difference in the cultures between generation. This sometimes creates a gap in understanding that causes conflict. Some topics that we talk about today include:

  • What are the main generations, and which ones are we?
  • What are some the biggest differences between generations? What are some defining life events, technologies, or stereotypes of each?
  • What is the conflict between Baby Boomers and Generation Z?
  • Is the younger generation too hard on the older generation and vice versa?
  • How does being a teacher in high school affect one's attitude toward the younger generation?
  • How may we better understand each other?
  • A special thank you goes out to Ms. Raleigh Christian, Mrs. Wendy Seibert, Ethan Phelps, and Taylor Talley for participating in my podcast! Please fill out the Google Form or email [email protected] for any feedback, questions, or requests for future episodes.

    Thank you for listening!
