As has always been the case, many people think that young people do not have

much to offer the elderly. It is hardly deniable that those who are older than us
have greater wisdom and experience which accumulated throughout their
lifetime. However, that does not imply that youth have no lessons to provide. For
a number of reasons, I disagree with this assertion, and I also believe that there
are things that younger people know that older people do not, and that they may
learn from us.

The aforementioned opinion might have been true a very long time ago when
science and technology were only in their infancy. Because older people's
experiences and the books they created are all that younger ones can learn from.
As of now, the elderly can once again be taught thanks to the advancement of
technology, which allows young people to learn anything through methods of
mass communication. The smartphones ought to work as an excellent illustration
since my mother even had no idea how to download Zalo years prior so she took
a lot of my instruction before she could use mobile banking applications fluently
without any additional health. Thus, it may be bold to assume without a strong
argument that the concept of elders outweighing their youthful counterparts in
knowledge-bearing and sharing is still accurate today.

It goes without saying that elderly people have a lot more experience and
wisdom than younger people, thus young adults should learn a lot from them.
However, a portion of the expertise and knowledge that they take pride in is out
of date, and the rate of technological advancement is too rapid for them to keep
up. Generally, young people have more time, keen minds, are adaptable and
creative, which help them learn and accomplish almost anything with all of their
passion. In today’s world, we have tools like e-mail, messengers, webcams, and
more. Hence, we can educate the elderly how to use these devices, though it is
quite difficult for them to be familiar with them.

In conclusion, there are various ways that we are educating the elderly to
become conversant with contemporary technologies. Consequently, they can
infer that technological inventions are wonderful and can be taken into the
fascination of technology.
