Kids and Elders are people who can love to spend his day with. They both share interesting and boring times. I can get agitated because they need company. They both make laugh, talking even when you want to be mum. But I really do not know which is more preferable to stay. Kids do not have experience to share but they also teach some intangible lessons. Elders have experience to share and but can be obsolete. I really love to if visiting my granny would better or staying with kids as they play better or better share time spent with them.
Which is very Interesting and more rewarding than the other

I prefer kids.Because they are very innocent . They don't know about anything.And they completely depends upon you.They will listen what you tell.And you can easily make them cry or laugh.Also we can divert their attention to some thing else.And of all they can make you laugh with their innocent activities.They are the best time pass.

Yea. That is the point.But in case of the elder we have to take extreme care even in the talking.Because they may feel bad by some small words.But for children they are the best because they will give company to children ,will tell stories, will take more care than us some times.

Hello Chikezie, both of them are interesting to me in different aspects. The elders or should i call the oldies are interesting to live with because i would learn a lot to them. Sharing their past life, how they manage to live peacefully. Everytime i have a problem with my kids, they teach me how to handle kids, share their experiences , reminiscing the good old times when we were still young. For KIds is different, interesting in a way that they make us laugh, happy and make our home full of life. Both of them are rewarding also.

I would define better the ages of kids and elders. Still, some people are born obsolete, others have natural wisdom from an early age. I get bored with people who donĀ“t have a good conversation, no matter what age or who think that they are the owners of the universal truth. A good discussion needs depht and acceptance. Age? My last BF was 80 and quite charming.

that is a very good but very hard question to answer...
i am more stuck in the middle. i love listening to the stories that the elderly have to tell from times before ours but if you think about it and you take the time to listen kids can come up with some really kool imagination filled story that is just as fun and interesting to listen to. elderly may not be able to run around and play but they can teach you how to play diffrent games we have never heard of. kids well they run and play and have a lot of energy and with their imaginations a day never goes by that you are bored. they both have good and bad qualities so i guess i would have to say that to me they are about even to me. i think they are both just as important and rewarding and interesting as the other :)

Hello Chikezie!
Well, I have two small children and every moment with them makes me absolutely light up! I love my kids so very much1 We create art projects together, go swimming and camping, watch movies, play with barbies and action figures..haha. Anything with my children is very rewarding to me. They are the light of my life. I smile constantly and thank God for them every single day. I could not have picked better kids to spend my life with.
As far as the elderly, I do have two family members that I love to visit in a nursing home. They are very sweet and humorous people. I like sharing photos and memories with them as well. We need to go and spend more time with them. Unfortunately, they live a long distance away form us. It costs so much in gas, and I really have to watch the budget.
I love spending my time with a lot of people in my life. Everyone is special to me in different ways. Yet, I always feel that my children come first in any situation. Being a mother is the best gift I have been given by God in this life!
