no, speaking as a young person myself you have it twisted. Younger generation has no experience. They are like babes in the world. For knowledge lead towards the elders. THe ones that have been through everything. People with experience. Not people that make it up as they go.

Yup!!! The oldies have a lot to learn from youngsters. Our downfall teaches them a lesson - 'Never offer to much of liberty to youngsters'.
These oldies actually have nothing to offer but their experience. And as we always do, ignore their suggerstions, choose our way out, hurt oursleves, make a few wrong decisions untill finally we realize that they were right.
Then at later stages of adulthood, we start advicing. Haven't you ever heard people starting with advices like, "my father/mother/grandpa/granny/etc. used to say...."
All the technology that we are developing into would have never started off unless oldies wouldn't have contributed. We just start at the point where they leave. That doen't mean that we are the ones responsible for whole of it. An oldie may need to learn about IT, Satellites, etc. from an youngster, but the basic calculation over fingers was the initial stage where we started from.
I hope that answers your approach.
All the best...

There is an advantage and a disadvantage
Older people have experienced life, so can , at least in some matters, give valuable input.
But younger people are the FUTURE, so their views are what will shape society/country/whatever.
Personally, I think you have the correct approach.

As times change, people change. We can all learn from each other. My father is 78 years old as of 2 days ago and I'm turning 19 soon. i was adopted but, he is my father none the less & he has an unlimited range of intelligence on many subjects but electronics confuse him much. That's where I come in.

of course...the older generation can learn from the younger generation just as much as the younger generation can learn from the older generation
