Look Amazing - How to Respect Your Elders

 
(1)Never refer to them by their first name, unless asked to. Always address their last name with "Mr.", "Mrs.", or "Miss". This is an important sign of respect. Always call the person by whatever they prefer, whether that is "Miss Smith", "Lily", or even just "Ma'am."

(2)Listen to their advice. Your elders have lived a lot longer than you, which means they have probably experienced more and have grown very wise or very cranky. Listen to what they have to offer, because if you don't they will mostly likely berate or guilt you. They have the time to do it! Of course, you may not need to take their advice. Or take it! They're people just like you. Don't treat them otherwise.

(3)Offer to help. They will appreciate any assistance you're willing to give them. Ask to help carry groceries in, hold a door open, or something else that is simple but genuine.

(4)Use basic manners. A simple please and thank you can mean a lot. Always be polite and sincere.

(5)Entertain them. They deserve it after working very hard in their lifetime.Try to avoid letting them watch television.

(6)how an interest in their life. Ask them about their childhood, or how things were in the past. They'll be happy that you're interested, and glad to tell you all sorts of cool stories.

(7)Be a friend. Offer to read to them, or maybe even have a cup of hot chocolate together. The person will love your company, and you'll both find a pal.

(8)Be patient. With age, people sometimes lose their logic and reasoning. They may be confused as to why you are associating to them. Gently remind them of who you are and your role in their life. They will appreciate the reminder and like you more.
