Do You Think "Respect your elders" "Age =wisdom" is complete bullshit? (Page 3)

[Malaikakhan]

0. o I'm not sure how your mind works lol but I love respecting elders even if they are not nice it dosent matter to me I like Giveing respect to everyone in return I just want their blessings...

[Giacomanzo]

The answer is "Nì" ( it means yes and no ).
People do get wiser with age, but this doesn't necessarily means that he/she is wiser than any other younger person. It just means that he/she is wiser than his/her younger self.

[Fearless_banana]

I generally respect my elders until their is a boundary that has been pushed. Older age doesn't always mean wisdom and maturity.

[BohicaJoe]

I think its total bull. Most people dont know shit about shit. doesn't matter if theyre 70, they still dont know shit

[abundantlyrich]

It should be a two way street but it doesn't always work like that.

[ConsultantIsBack]

I respect elders. Many are senile, racist, homophobic assholes that have worthless Fox News-derived opinions lmao, but I respect them.

[helloitsmethere]

Sometimes it is total bullshit and sometimes it isn't. Everyone deserves respect as long as you are giving it to other people.

[SunnyCaliGirl]

No it is not BS at all!!! You should respect those in leadership above you no matter who they are even if you don't like them respect then as a human.

[Words_and_Wisdom]

It's not about the quantity of years, it's the quality. Someone who lives 70 years under a rock has the wisdom of someone who's lived under a rock all his / her life.

No matter how smart or wise you think you are you are ALWAYS more so later in life.

[trumpetplayerforlife]

You should respect your elders they have been and see things that you almost never will see happen

[Byakuyarko]

Teenagers are mostly idiots. They ought to be considered as such. But they're not beyond the potential to be educated unlike old senile gaffers.

[Omar5881]

We should respect anyone at any age , but usually wisdom comes the age not in all cases but the majority

[WhaChaChaKing]

Respect should be earned. I don't give a shit how old a person is.

[Anonymous]

Yes and no, my grandparents have their old style of thinking, but i don't loose my respect.

[bente2]

Exactly what you stated.

[Joshuafirestar]

It's because adults are "infallible"

[bubbletrouble]

No in my experience its pretty legit

[anonman32]

yes, many older people are senile.

[bcromartie]

It isn't bullshit. It just isn't always true.
