Youth Indicators 1996 / Indicator 57, Chart 1
SOURCE: University of Michigan, Institute for Social Research, Monitoring the Future, various years.
High school seniors of 1992 agreed more with their parents on six out of ten important topics than seniors in 1975. The level of agreement remained about the same for three other areas, and decreased in only one area, "how to spend money." Most seniors (87 percent) agreed with their parents on the value of an education. Only about half or fewer of the seniors were in agreement with their parents on how to spend money, what is permitted on a date, and politics.
