Yes they have a lot to teach but respect is a mutual thing you get what you give so sometimes you do what you must.

They should be treated with respect since they've lived their life and have learned from their many mistakes. That being said it's less of respect more just be nice and judge them based on you own thoughts.

i think that it is very important to respect them because they are very wise and know a lot.

It is very relevant they should be taught with respect

 @9J29QMT from California disagreed…5mos5MO

I think that it's important to instill a sense of right and wrong in younger generations. Yes, everyone deserves respect ONCE they earn it. Respect isn't given and if an elder disrespects or harms you, then giving them respect isn't something you are obligated to do. It's important for others to feel comfortable stating their opinions and not feel offended or attacked by doing so.

It is relevant, as most elderly people are wise and kind, although those same elders should be taught the new ways of today through family.

I agree with them being taught the new ways of today through family. However, most elderly people as of 2024 are bigoted, racist, and stuck in their ways of the past as it was 'acceptable' in the time. We should not be babying these ADULTS, that are making it seem like their age has given them wisdom and made them kind. Many only know about their time and nothing else beyond that, and many old people of today will spit, bite, or hit you if you do something they don't like and attempt to get away with it because they are old and you should respect them. Respect is a two way street, and you cannot earn it by being old and what you think is kind, especially if you think that the old ways when you were a child is still acceptable.
