please I need your opinion on this statement: "YOUNG PEOPLE TODAY HAVE NO TIME OR RESPECT FOR THE OLD."

Answer

This statement is a misconception and also an opinion.

Explanation:

This has been an argument for some time now, It's not that younger people don't have respect, its the fact that "you have to give respect to earn it." Social media plays a big part in how young people treat elders, whether it be videos, statements etc. Young people may perceive elders as cruel or stuck up because passed experience or what they've been told about elders. My opinion is that young people feel as tho, they are superior because they are young and they first think "since they aren't apart of my family or just don't know what iv'e been through i don't have do listen or respect them".

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
