Every elder thinks that the younger generations fails to respect them. As I am fast reaching the age where I am one of those “elders” I have started to notice the same irritation.
I started this game young – I was 17 and I irritated my “elders” too. But in a completely different way from the way I am irritated now. I was the eternal student. I listened and asked questions and wrote a lot down. I remembered what was told, often reminding teachers what they had said in the past, or what others had said. If I struck what I thought was a contradiction I would ask about it.
