EASY QUESTION!!!!<br><br> Do you think that young people should enjoy life more than older people?
agasfer [191]

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

I think you can enjoy life at any age, but it is easier to do more when you are younger, like sky diving, or traveling, or going to swim at the beach. When you're older it gets harder to do those things because of health problems. But if you're older and want to experience things you've never done before I say go for it.
