Too much sharing in families does not aid growth
€ 3.00We are witnessing an increasing amount of sharing, complicity and resemblance between parents and their children. There is more sharing than ever among generations, but with what consequences? If this continues, young people risk losing even more independence from adults as they make their own way through life. So-called rites of passages are slowly disappearing; those hallmark moments in individuals’ lives that society considers fundamental because they lead to a change in status. This is precisely why these events are dramatised in ritual form and become important collective moments. The most common are related to reaching an age that every society, each according to its own parameters, calls “adulthood". Yet over time, these moments of passage in our society have become increasingly more rare and rarefied, as everything in our lives is shared and everyone is eternally young.
