Privileges we have today that people 30 years ago didn't
My grandfather and i have a generation gap of about 30 years and tbh the way he tells me about the world back then and now i feel so privileged.
My grandpa was telling me the other day how the only source of information and news was a news paper and radio station .
How his room had a big Radio and a casette player for entertainment and movies were seen in the Cinema theaters.
He tells me how he used to go to school on a cycle and he had the time of his life time . People were simple and honest back then .
Now newspaper has been replaced by News channels , cinemas are replaced by netflix and Disney+ , cycles are now replaced by cars and bikes , spotify is the new Casette player.
Technology has changed our life styles and how people live but it also has taken so much culture away . Back when they had limited technology they still had alot of chances to meet and greet and have family time now we live together but hardly ever talk.
Yet i love how travelling is easier now back in the 1980s cars weren't common .
Pros of being in generation are that we have better vehicles and gadgets also better medical facilities .
How ever i still believe people back then were more closer to nature and were more responsible then people today .
What are your thoughts on this ?
What generation do you think has or had it the best ?

In the 1980s, I went to grades 1-8 at school. Then it was good. But in the late 1980s, we already had electronic toys and consoles for rent. I remember that the whole family watched TV, it brought us closer.
