I get annoyed at young ppl

I have an example. A 65 year old grandmother whos raised 2 kids and 4 grandchildren wont want to listen to a college kid about how to parent. Because that person is not qualified. Just as a tax professional wont listen to a janitor teach him about how taxes work. I suppose as a young person you have no way to relate to how annoying it is because you've only experienced one end of the equation.

I don't judge someone's view based on their age, I base it on whether the individual person makes a good point or not.

I would be willing to bet when you are 55 you will feel the same way about a young person explaining the world to you. Because you will look back and laugh at the views you hold now.

Not at all, life's too short to have bad days.

It's better to live, love, and enjoy life.

If you run in to something that's stupid, just laugh about it, because in most cases you can't change it!

Do you think you'll understand how things like taxes or government works better at 18 or 55?

If you grasp a concept of the world now at 18 how much better do you think you'll understand it by the time you are 55? Its not like you are just gonna forget all that knowledge. You'll just have more experience and time to think about it.

I just love how you took this personal. How does living with your parents and just going through puberty equate to people in their early twenties.

I think maybe the op just made his point. I took it more as 15 to 18 maybe 19. But, I forgot in the USA, children are still living with their parents into their late 20s. Maybe after they have their sex change, figure out what gender they are, and determine their pronouns, just maybe that's when they go through puberty as well.

Young people aren't incapable of grasping concepts, it's just that they tend to lack knowledge of the bigger picture. They can make a shallow appraisal, which is sometimes correct, but if you start digging into stuff like "how" or even "why", they usually won't have an answer.

Older people don't always have that depth of information, either, but they at least had the chance to learn it. Younger people tend to only know that kind of stuff if they had an independent passion for the subject (or, perhaps, had really rigorous lives).

So much to unpack here...

20 somethings are arrogant. Totally normal.

55 is Gen X. I think you are blaming "boomers" for something that older adults in general, don't have patience for anymore. They were that arrogant prick, and hopefully learned from it as they grow as a person. With age comes wisdom, but not necessarily the ability to communicate with grace.

I agree.

It’s much better to listen to the young person, ponder it, then tell them it’s stupid as all fuck. 😂

Maybe they aren't belittling and you have issues with constructive criticism? I remember my friend's mom once told me how nice it was to be young and idealistic, but I would change. At the time I could not see how I would. My beliefs are strong and I am stubborn. But now, 20 some odd years later, I absolutely understand. I have not changed my beliefs, but my perspective has changed. So now my ideals are focused in other areas. I have changed, we all change, that is how life works. If you do not change and adapt to the world around you, you will suffer for it. So keep the young spirit, but work with your elders and learn what you can. Don't get all pissy because you feel offended they dared suggest you didn't know something. If you don't want to be viewed as a braindead and incapable of grasping concepts, prove it.

Kids can get annoying for an introvert

Nah, everybody thinks they’re right. If you didn’t, you wouldn’t think.

Yes, though not quite as annoying as listening to someone older saying the same stupid crap as a teenager when they should obviously know better.

HOW DARE YOU!
