Older people are generally nice, but some didn't have great manners. I know that many people think that old people at some point start becoming like when they were little kids(need more help,etc), but arent things like manners learned when people are young and then not forgotten?? i walk with a limp from Spina Bifida and they were all staring at me in disgust. And also, when i sat down at the dinner area, i saw many whispering about me to each other and the ones who were hard of hearing were yelling to each other "whats with these school kids, they cant help us, why do they volunteer?". why dont these people realize what they are doing? they should know how to act towards other people, especially people like me trying to help. its like they learn manners as children and use it when they are adults, and then it all goes out the window when they get old. im 17 by the way.
