Re: "Respect your elders"
Stereo types aren't me.
I am my own person....and many of those who grew up at the same time as me are exactly the same.
We are the ones who had more freedom to do what we wanted. OK there were still privations, but those gave us the resilience to rise above...they forged our characters, they made us strong.
I actually feel very sorry for those growing up now. The world is full of uncertainties for them. They know nothing at all of simple pleasures.
Technology has moved on, but for some it has impoverished them of experiences.
