I do believe that the elderly deserve our respect.
They deserve respect because they provided to our society before we were even born. The elderly are part of a previous generation, which has brought the new generations to live and had helped develop the social structure in which our lives unfold. I especially respect my parents because they worked their entire lives to provide for my brothers and me. I try to learn from them, and I often remind them how appreciated all their efforts are.
