What is your idea of a perfect day as an 80-year-old?
@9J6NYY21yr1Y
Sleeping in. When awake go feed birds, tend to garden, and relax
The perfect day for an 80-year-old to me would be spending time with your grandchildren and your own kids as well.
Living somewhere warm and enjoying life and the beach.

@9JNYZCFRepublican1yr1Y
Have mandatory school days where children are introduced to elderly who give them life lessons.
They could make visits to elderly homes so the children can do a 'report' on their life and learn some new things and gain knowledge from the elderly.

@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
How important is it to include elderly voices in conversations about our future?
@9H9JH632yrs2Y
Depending on the situation at hand their voices should be heard if it is something beneficial to the future.
@9H6MZPW2yrs2Y
Only if their opinion is aligned with the bettering of the future for younger generations. If elderly voices try to impose the values of society from when they were young on the future, their voices should not be taken seriously
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
How could the education system benefit from regular involvement of the elderly?
: Participation in and perceptions of an educational delivery system. ... Elderly interests in the expressive domain. Educational
@9HY9LKN1yr1Y
I don't think it would benefit that much. I think social security should not be a thing. It was good at the time but now people should plan for their own future. We don't need to bring in the eldery to educate us about this topic. We should not be dependent on our government because then they have to much control over us. I do think they should talk about the abuse they have and mental health. Also making our city more elderly-friendly will not hurt. All elderly have the same rights of everyone else. They should not be treated different.
@9HY9MLJ1yr1Y
The elderly could discuss important topics with students and help to educate them.
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
What are some ways we can all prepare now for a better quality of life in our senior years?

To be honest yes, because it helped me prevent more issues that they experience in my age, as well as solutions for me to solve from my conflicts/ problems.
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
How can we better integrate the elderly into our communities and everyday activities?
@9HCWVPH2yrs2Y
Creating areas in public places that the elderly should be able to enjoy as well.
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
How should the world change to accommodate the growing number of elderly people?
There should be better health care for the elderly. More assisted living should be provided to them, or even building more elderly homes would do them some good.
@9HGKY3T2yrs2Y
Maybe more occupations to accommodate the elderly if there is no family for them, better old homes, no payment required and government funding should go to creating homes for them.
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
Why do you think some societies revere their elderly while others seem to overlook them?
@9HJ8Y2JRepublican2yrs2Y
because some people see them as a wise and respected but some people just dont show respect at all
The perception of the elderly varies across societies due to cultural, economic, and historical factors. Societies that value wisdom, experience, and intergenerational connections often revere their elderly. In contrast, societies focusing more on youth or facing economic challenges might overlook older individuals as they may be seen as less economically productive. Cultural values play a significant role in shaping attitudes toward the elderly.

@9KWS7T91yr1Y
Allow the elderly to have a greater hand in the school system, by perhaps offering opportunities for guest speakers based on the career of the old person in question and the expertise they can share on their career in regards to their triumphs and mistakes, what they would have done differently, and what they would advice the youth to do.

What do you feel when you see an elderly person struggling with technology?
@Name-IrrelevantConstitution 2yrs2Y
I am obligated to live by the rule of "love your neighbor as yourself." If an elderly person struggles with anything, I should help them. This is not a political issue. Regular people can help regular people without the government interfering.

How would you redesign public spaces to improve the day-to-day lives of the elderly?
