RE: Does the saying "You should respect your elders" still hold true today?- @ecotrain QOTW
When you teach the children to respect the elders, you ensure that the next generation will honour the wisdom of others. This will help them value kindness, consideration, honesty, open-mindedness, and gratitude as well.
That is true but you need to teach your kids to differentiate right from wrong for themselves too and not just agree with what their elders want just because they are elders. You know this obeying the adults for no reason has resulted in a lot of conflicts and is a reason why some people may respect adults on the surface but not really from within.
