just because you are old, doesn't mean you won't respect the younger / myLot

just a rant really... I was with my dad, lining up for something. And this older woman stepped on my foot while we were moving up the line and she did not even say sorry.

It may just be a small thing but i just thought about all the times that happened to me. I really hate older people, or anyone really who bump into you or step on you without saying sorry.

I don't know what that has to do with age. There are polite and impolite people in all age groups.

It's just that the old woman happens to be rude. It really has nothing to do with age. Some old people are kind.

don't hate older people. just dislike them. hate is a very strong word, it encompasses all negative energy. there are many senior citizens who are disrespectful to the younger people. i also have many instances when the older people 'step on my shoe'. but let us not forget that eventually, we will also grow old and we want to get old gracefully and respectable too, right?

it isn't about age but just the individual. I'm polite to my younger ones.

Not a problem with age, I am always taught in school with the attitude of mutual respect for fellow human beings and it depends on each individual.
