Building Safer Futures

Engaging Our Youth Together In the heart of every community lies the duty to protect and nurture its youth. This responsibility doesn’t belong to one individual or organization but to everyone—parents, mentors, and community leaders alike. At a recent gathering focused on youth safety, we were reminded of the power of prayer, unity, and proactive engagement in shaping a better future for our…

Intergenerational Dynamics

The relationship between the young and the old is a complex, multifaceted dynamic that evolves within societal, cultural, and familial contexts. It involves both tension and harmony, rooted in differences in experiences, perspectives, and roles. The relationship can be understood through various philosophical, sociological, and psychological lenses, emphasizing intergenerational exchange, wisdom and vitality, and the ways in which each generation contributes to the other’s growth.

Key Aspects of the Relationship Between the Young and the Old

Wisdom vs. Vitality:

Older generations are often seen as the bearers of wisdom, experience, and tradition. They pass down knowledge and life lessons to the younger generation, offering guidance and a sense of continuity with the past.

Younger generations, on the other hand, bring vitality, new energy, and fresh perspectives. They tend to challenge established norms, innovate, and drive societal progress. This interaction between the wisdom of the old and the creativity of the young fosters growth on both sides.

Transmission of Culture and Tradition:

The relationship between the young and the old is crucial for the preservation of culture, values, and traditions. Elders act as custodians of cultural heritage, ensuring that historical knowledge, customs, and moral values are passed down to the next generation.

At the same time, the younger generation may question, reinterpret, or reform these traditions, leading to cultural evolution. This dynamic can result in tension, particularly when younger individuals seek to break away from traditional values, but it also drives social transformation.

Mentorship and Guidance:

The old often serve as mentors to the young, offering support, wisdom, and advice during critical periods of life such as adolescence, career building, or parenthood. This mentorship is essential for the personal development of the young.

Through these relationships, older individuals often find purpose and fulfillment, contributing to the growth of younger individuals while staying engaged with new ideas and changes in society.

Generational Conflict and Reconciliation:

Historically, there is often tension between younger and older generations due to differences in values, priorities, and worldviews. Older generations may cling to stability and tradition, while younger generations may advocate for change and progress.

This generational conflict can be seen in various contexts, from the family unit to broader social movements. However, the reconciliation of these differences can lead to mutual understanding and the blending of innovation with tradition.

Dependence and Role Reversal:

In early life, younger generations are often dependent on older ones for nurturing, education, and care. This dependence shifts over time as young people grow into adulthood and older individuals age, sometimes requiring care from the younger generation.

This role reversal in caregiving, particularly in familial settings, can reshape the relationship between young and old, emphasizing the cyclical nature of life and interdependence.

Intergenerational Learning:

The exchange between the young and the old involves reciprocal learning. While the older generation imparts traditional knowledge and wisdom, the younger generation can introduce new ideas, technologies, and ways of thinking.

This mutual learning can foster innovation and adaptation, as the older generation benefits from the creativity and adaptability of youth, while the younger generation learns from the accumulated knowledge and experience of elders.

Perception of Time and Mortality:

Older individuals often have a more reflective relationship with time and mortality, contemplating the legacy they will leave behind and the passage of life. This can lead to a desire to impart wisdom and ensure that their experiences contribute to the future.

Younger individuals tend to have a more forward-looking, ambitious perspective, with a focus on the future and a sense of invincibility. The awareness of mortality tends to develop more deeply over time, and the relationship with older generations can bring this reality into focus for younger people.

Social Change and Continuity:

Generational relationships are essential to the process of social change. While older generations provide continuity, holding onto the lessons and experiences of the past, younger generations are often the drivers of innovation and change.

The interplay between preserving traditions and introducing new ways of thinking is crucial for the healthy development of societies. The challenge is in finding a balance that honors the wisdom of the past while embracing the potential of the future.

The relationship between the young and the old is a dynamic interplay of wisdom, energy, tradition, and change. It is marked by mutual dependence, with each generation playing a crucial role in shaping the other’s development. While generational conflict can arise due to differences in worldview, this tension is also a source of growth, allowing society to progress while remaining rooted in historical knowledge and cultural continuity.

Dean, Cas, Jack and the kitchen and Jack's childhood bedroom as common domain

It's so interesting that Dean and Cas are more often portrayed meeting Jack in his bedroom or the bunker kitchen to counsel him or bring him nourishment, at least compared to his other parental figures (Sam, Mary, Bobby).

Sam is undoubtedly his parent, but he's associated more often with the library and pencils--mentor symbols. Of note, Mary also meets Jack in the kitchen and gives familial encouragement in 14x17 Game Night, but her knife training with Jack takes place in the library. Donatello counsels Jack in his kitchen in 14x15 Peace of Mind, but like Sam, there's visual books in the background. It has an added layer of advice-giving/mentorship.

///

In 13x23 Let the Good Times Roll, we get Dean coming to JACK'S ROOM-- NIGHT when Jack is emotionally distressed:

Jack writhes on the bed-- having a nightmare. Dean moves for him-- touching his arm--

///

And in 14x07 Unhuman Nature, he's coming to the infirmary to make sure Jack has nourishment:

DEAN: "Brought you some carbs. How you (doin')?"

///

In 14x03 The Scar, we get Cas coming to JACK'S ROOM-- NIGHT to praise him for his persistence on a case:

CAS: "I'll make you some soup."

///

When Jack is dying in 14x08 Byzantium, we see a record player and vinyl in his room, implying that not only do Dean and Jack listen to music together (per 14x16 Don't Go into the Woods), but they may hang out and listen to music in Jack's room.

///

In 14x15 Peace of Mind, Cas again comes to counsel Jack -> JACK'S ROOM-- DAY

"Cas knows this "check in" is the last thing the boy wants."

///

BONUS: Dean and Cas are ALSO associated to docks, water, and fishing throughout the series as early as season 4, and that also gets transferred to Jack in two specific script instances:

The first is in 13x14 Good Intentions when AU Zacharaiah gives Jack a vision of Cas and Jack fishing (this originally was an extended scene that occurs post-Zachariah's vision of burning the human side of Jack's family):

///

And ofc there's the heartwarming fishing scene that actually occurs in 14x07 Unhuman Nature, with Jack and Dean:

It's just interesting how visually Dean and Cas are portrayed characteristically differently, with regards to Jack. You know?

I know everything I'm doing is the right thing to do at this moment. Besides the hesitations and brief panic in my breath and the sighs of stress I let out, But I'm human and know I'm not perfect. And there's a beauty to it and a sense of relief when I realize it. It's still stressful. I'm trying my best to not let my frustrations or anxiety show, but it's easier said than done. I can't help but feel like others don't see me achieving anything of real value and so small babysitting task should be my lane to stay in. But this is only the random thoughts that burst threw knowing it's no where the truth of any of it. But I can't help but feel like I've let myself down in saying I'd do so many things and I haven't done anything. How do I bring myself out of this shadow??

I know I have my own journey to follow that no one will guide me threw. And understanding myself in all this is key to it. But how can I choke so much on this one simple task. I want to take care of this individual to the very best of my ability but when is it too much concern? Too much giving? Too much guiding and too much lenience?? I'm suppose to be the role model here and I can't even find my footing in all this. It's not even that much but it feels so draining. I know it's more of my nerves that take over this sensation causing the stress and that's why I'm loosing my train of thought so easily with everything!

It's not like I'm running for president or something, I'm just taking care of someone. I'm socializing with this person daily and forcing this connection which I realize, I DON"T LIKE!! I love connecting with people, but not when it feels forced. I just can't bring myself to set this guard aside or feel at ease with this individual; Hell, a Fuckin' Kid! Why is it so hard for me to just find the clear answer and address the situations with certainty. This kid is scared of everything, I have to keep my cool and be a kind mentor. I can't be like the mentor's before me who used me or gaslighted me. I have to show patience and support. I can't break in front of this kid. I have to stay strong.

I have to breathe...

CHARACTER

The truest measure of an individual’s character are dependant on four factors.

One, how they treat those who can do nothing for them.

Two, how they easily discard their support system.

Three, their actions do not align with their words.

Four, their selfish needs supersede doing what is right, just, or rational.
