Do you agree that older people always know the right and the wrong thing? Are you obedient enough to follow all things older people have told you to do?

It doesn't mean that if you are older,you are more mature. Maturity is not measured by age. I guess, it is a state of mind in which a person takes responsibility for his own actions and decisions in life. I am obedient to my parents because I knew that they know better than I do. They are more mature in a sense that they've gone through the experience that I'm going through right now. Its good to listen to your parents. Its better that you think twice before deciding and listen to others advice because it might give you insights. Weigh their opinion about the matter but, in the end its still you who will decide what you want in your life.

They do have the experience of the age, but with the changing circumstances at times what they tell comes out to be out of place, so before agreeing to what they say I judge the outcome and if I feel they are right about a thing then I follow.
