A 2- to 3-page paper comparing your own path to adulthood with that of someone you are personally familiar with from at least two generations before you (such as one of your grandparents or a similarly aged person).
Your comparison should include the following:
Identify the generation of yourself and your chosen grandparent (or similar elder) based on the terminology from Pew Research Center (2015) and similar resources.
Compare the experiences of both yourself and your chosen elder in reaching adulthood, supporting your comparison with examples.
Explain whether you believe the chosen elder's experience in their path to adulthood is reflective of other people in their time, supporting your ideas with research conducted on that particular generation.
Assuming the perspective of your elder, describe any opinions (positive, negative, etc.) they might have on your personal path to adulthood. Provide examples to support your ideas.
Support your work with citations from your course text, scholarly resources, and your library research.
