In Tokyo Ghoul :Re, a darker example of this is present with the three generations of the Washuu Family. Chairman Tsuneyoshi Washuu is the ultimate authority within the CCG, having long ago established his status as the legendary "Demon Tsune". His son, Chief Yoshitoki Washuu, is the current head of daily operations for the organization and supervises many operations and projects. Throwing a wrench into things is the youngest generation, Matsuri Washuu. An ambitious man, he seeks to oust his own father and take over the organization. While the family has led the organization since its conception, each member is expected to distinguish themselves in the field and uphold the honor of their Badass Family.

The Simpsons has Lisa, Marge, and Mona Simpson; the girl genius with the world as her oyster; the mother who can do practically anything she sets her mind to; and the grandmother (Lisa's gran, Marge's mother-in-law) who is intelligent, well-travelled, and generally led a full life.
There is an inversion in the unsuccessful males, Bart, Homer, and Abe; the young boy who's more interested in causing trouble; the father who never bothered to learn anything in youth, and can't advance now; and the grandfather who never made anything of his life.
Or, The retired badass Sergeant Rock; The multilingual, world-famous, musician/astronaut; and the pre-adolescent natural leader future Chief Justice of the Supreme Court-successful son, and the one who ultimately gets the others to see what is really important.

The Reagan family of Blue Bloods features three active members of the NYPD as series regulars: Jamie, a former law student who joined the force after his brother Joe's death, making him a very well-educated rookie; Danny, an experienced and driven detective whose investigations make up the A-plot of most episodes; and their father Frank, police commissioner and voice of integrity and wisdom within the family. The Reagan family also includes Frank's own father Henry, a retired former police commissioner respected by all, and Frank's grandchildren: precocious teenage Nicky, who's thinking of becoming a cop herself, and Joe's illegitimate offspring Joe Hill, an up-and-coming detective with the Firearms Division who appears in "Family Secrets". Thus, it's more a case of Five Successful Generations.

By the end of The Westing Game, Turtle's family have become this trope: Windy Windkloppel, who founded a giant paper-products conglomerate under the "Sam Westing" alias, is the Elder; his niece Grace Wexler, the Adult, has become the owner/director of a chain of Chinese restaurants; and T.R. "Turtle" Wexler herself, as the Youth, is building her second fortune in as a stockbroker and businesswoman.

The Most Popular Girls in School: In the van Buren family, the members that share the dynamic are Cameron, Mikayla and their mother, who were/are very popular at school for being head cheerleaders, or because of their family history. Shay misses out because Mackenzie took head cheerleader in elementary school, and is ashamed of it — even though it was through no fault of her own.

The Book of Eve: Beatrice is young and smart but reclusive. She develops the courage to seek her own fortune at the end of the book. Ortolana is mature and capable, a recent widow who has taken control of her late husband's business and social/political duties. She is secure in her own situation but struggles to prepare her children for the future. Chiara, the oldest of the three, has lots of wisdom and experience. She has retired from her famous youth and is content simply to protect and guide her community.

Deconstructed in Encanto. On the surface, Alma, Julieta and Mirabel do show the strengths of their generational positions. Alma (The Elder), is the matriarch of the Madrigal family and guides the use of the family's gifts in service to the community. Julieta (The Adult) uses her healing gift to help the community, a responsibility she takes quite seriously and Mirabel (The Youth) is filled with passion and love for her family and seeks to support them however she can. Yet, as the story is about a family caught under the weight of dysfunction, we see the darker side of each generation that impacts how successful each can be. Alma has suffered greatly which has affected her ability to serve as a wise matriarch. She is motivated by fear and grief such that she imposes a "toxic perfectionism" on her family that is slowly crushing them under the weight of her expectations. Julieta is clearly an empowered adult who uses her skill to the best of her ability yet is also saddened by having a brother who "lost his way" in the family but finds that she can't even bring up his name and now fears that Mirabel may follow the same path. Finally, while there is no denying Mirabel's love and enthusiasm for her family, her song "Waiting on a Miracle" shows that after years of trying to accept that "she is just as special as the rest of her family", we see that she realizes she lives in the shadow of all that her family can do and admits that she is still waiting for her own miracle.

Hey Arnold!: Arnold has this dynamic with his father, Miles, and his grandfather, Phil.
Arnold is the Youth, he is a mature, precocious, level-headed and well-meaning All-Loving Hero who has shown to be a massive influence on his town/community (best shown in The Jungle Movie).
Miles (along with his wife Stella) is the Adult as they are an anthropologist who helped the Green Eyed People overcome an illness called the Sleeping Sickness.
Phil is the Elder: He runs the boarding house and is the one who raises Arnold, occasionally telling him many interesting stories of his past.
This also doubles as The Three Faces of Adam with Arnold as The Hunter, Miles as The Lord and Phil as The Prophet.
