What can the older generation learn from the younger.

As a part of evolution many things they have changed today. Like today we have computers with us but we don't know how to fix small software problems we get in them. Similarly we have smart phones today and there are many things in them about which we don't have any idea....we can learn these things from the people of younger generation!

How it should work. Only a wise person tries to learn in all ways possible. The world would probably look totally different if they never listen and learn from young kids. Hell, we would have probably already blew ourselves up.

That is a great attitude. Wouldn't it be wonderful if both generations felt that way?

I think that we can both learn from each other.

The most I learn from my grandchildren is technology. They understand it and it boggles my mind at times

Yes, I learn from all ages of people. All races of people..... All people.

I think the generation of my parents and aunt can learn from our generation that parenting is a bit more relaxed these days. Children of our generation is given more freedom to choose what they want to do in their lives, parents of my generation are already giving their children a space to choose, to be what they want and be more supportive. Unlike during our times when our parents, or most of the parents during our time insists on their children to follow their footsteps, take ownership of their business, that they are forced not to explore and do what they dream of. Though my generation is not too far from the current one... I still consider myself to be a millenial. Stuck in the old thinking at times though but is very open to new discoveries, especially the technology. I guess I learned or have learned to sometimes live my life in a fast paced environment, to learn how to cope or be left behind. unlike during our parent's time, their lives seem more relaxed. They are not too forced to be quick, etc. Unlike now that if you don't cope you are outdated already.

My 14 year old son would talk about designer shoes and clothes and music and I learn something new about that everyday from him. But he learns life lessons from me as well.

My kids and grandchildren taught me everything about technology.

That's a tough question but I'll have to go with looking at the world through their eyes. Not forget to have fun. Laugh more. Be silly.

It's the younger generation teaching us how to use all these new fangled devices we like to play on every day - computers, iPhones, iPads, tablets, laptops. We didn't have any of this when we were growing up.

Yes, that's right, younger generation learns from older generation and vice versa

I learned the joys of reading online than physical books only. Taught to me by my niece and nephew. Ha ha.

I have learnt a lot from my young niece. She has inspired a lot of humility and honesty in me.

my parents taught me how to cook and i taught them with technology.

technology i guess

@amadeo I have learned when my nephews were young how smart they were. I felt very stupid. They are very good at learning how technology works.

I am always fascinated by what I learn from younger people. I love to learn about their happy attitudes.

I confess the greatest lessons that I have learnt in life are from my daughters and my children with whom I work as an educator. Every one irrespective of their age can teach us something valuable. We have to be open about it.

Thanks for sharing
