Introduction
The aim of this report is to discuss the attitudes young people have
towards elder people and the prospect of growing old themselves. Also there are
some recommendations for improving these attitudes and make young people
realize some things.
Attitudes towards elder people
Young people always had bad attitudes and specially towards older
people. They lack of patience which is very important while being with older
people, this is because they take their time to do some things or the find it
harder to understand the modern world as we know it since they come from
another generation. They need an
explanation multiple times to understand and sometimes young people looses
their minds trying to explain. That's why people don't like to be with older people,
they are not the same as them, in other words they are incompatible.
Prospect of growing old themselves
As I stated before, older and young people are incompatible. Young
people can't imagine a life in which they are very limited to do what they like.
Many of them see elder people as boring or as people that are excluded from
society. Young people want to do what they want, so they see growing as an
obstacle.
Recommendations
These attitudes must be changed and improved in order to make elder
people comfortable and to reintegrate them into society.
·
Young
people should realize that older people need attention by encouraging them to
spend time with them
·
Inform
about their disabilities and how people can help them
If some attitudes could be
changed, older people could be happier and end their final stage properly.
