With the advent of globalization,the development of information technology and the popularization of new media,the post-1990s parents have become digital immigrants.The 90-year-old digital natives who grew up with the Internet in China have become the early adopters of new media and the ensuing family daily Intergenerational differences,manifested in everything from artifacts to knowledge to ideas,became home to families that deserved to be studied in culture.On the other hand,the rapid development of the Internet in China has led to the operation and use of new media toward a basic social survival skill.For digital immigrants and digital natives in elders,cultural nurturing needs urgent attention.Based on the domestic and international researches on culture feedback,some researches on digital generation gap and innovation diffusion are carried out.Based on snowball sampling,depth interviews are made with 10 families of 90 college students.Based on the theory of digital ditch and diffusion of rational behavior,The new media represented by WeChat presents intergenerational differences between family parents and children,feeds on the status quo and the attitudes and influencing factors of both parents and children in the process of proliferation,the significance of cultural feedback to family relationships,and tries to find out how cultural nurture affects generations of digital generations Role.The study found that,first,there is a significant microcosmic family ditch memory.In addition to the more consistent purpose of parent-child use,differences in access,functional awareness and attitudes,content exposure and understanding,and levels of use vary widely.Second,the family culture to nurture stay in the shallow objects.Differences of outlook still exist stubbornly.Ubiquitous cultural feedback can narrow the digital gap between the two sides,but can not completely bridge the gap between the concepts.Third,their children's cognition of innovative things come from peer groups and new media.Their feedback attitude is influenced by the attitude of their parents,their own emotions and the frequency of feeding back.Children often use face-to-face teaching and remote guidance to feed their parents with new media,Nurturing children still think there is insurmountable concept of generation gap,it will choose to screen or avoid.Elder behavioral intentions are sufficient conditions for elders to make decisions,but they are not only controlled by the attitudes and subjective norms of the new media,but also influenced by the cost of their own use and the objective security of the media.Fourth,the new media has brought a series of positive impacts on family retribution,including raising the pro-generation media literacy and children's speech rights in new media,but may also reinforce the antagonism and estrangement of parent-child relationship.Therefore,Special attention should be paid to attitude adjustment.Especially for elders,maintaining a positive attitude and enhancing their ability of independent study are particularly important for grasping the survival skills in the new era and facing the future Internet and digital challenges.
