Role of parents:
↳ Attentive parents can impart good and moral values which can create a strong value frame for the child.
↳ Determining certain values as most revered, for example, respecting elders not telling a lie etc can infuse a good moral character of the child.
↳ Forbidding certain things at childhood stage leads to better child rearing eg. A thief says that when I stole 5 rupees in my childhood, my mother instead of scolding me, appreciated me, thus leading to me being a thief today.
However, these might be a difference in values of parents and children because of
↳ Socialization of parents and children occurs in different settings
↳ Overall change in society over a period of a generation, thus making children more acceptive of newer values
↳ Generational & Communication gap can cause the values not to be instilled in similar manner as parents
Although different, the values of children have their origin in the values imparted in them at a younger age.
