Obi Wan Kenobi

People of all ages should have respect for their ideas and opinions, but, I'd never respect the experience of a teenager, for example, if it were being used as advice for my life. I've lived through things they can't possibly comprehend yet, and they think they're my own personal guru? Respect and learn from the experiences of those who have gone before; they're trying to make your life easier.

I was talking about giving some measure of respect to the people rather than to their ideas/opinions. All people should be respected, because they are image bearers of God.

But you make a good point about the difference in life experience of people older than us, compared to those younger than us.
