Past generations weren't living in as socially atomistic a world as today. That is a fact recognized by most sociologists and most older generations I've talked to, family or otherwise. America today has less social networks than it did in previous generations and higher motivation to avoid social interaction with less trust between and within ethnic groups. Look up Robert Putnam's work.
