True... But that would also depend on a person itself... Not all old people loose their wits at very old age. Plenty of them do, but still. Anyhow, it is not nice to critisise them on that mater. You too will at some age grow old and won"t be able to fit into world anymore. You ought to bare with old people, and try to understand them. My grandfather passed away few years back. I had quite a few quarels with them (I use a plural here cause it is a custom in our language to adress someone in plural when you want to show them respect.)
cause we were both hot-headed. Blood ain"t water, I guess. Well, few days before they passed away I took them to a country in my car, we were driving and I was just listening... About their youth and stuff... That is one of my best memories of them.
Ok, old people are old. But try to understand them just a bit. You won"t be young forever buddy. Just posting an opinion here, no harm ment. :)
