Eight PrinciplesWhat Should I do?

Respect each other’s differences

Understand those differences and think positively about them

Treat others with respect at all times

Avoid all stereotypes, be they negative or

positive

All traits of a generation may not

apply to everyone from that time period

Be flexible with others

If you feel that you are being stereotyped,

explain to others why it is wrong

Learn from each other what each generation

has to offer
