Old People

Old age : consists of ages nearing or surpassing the average life span of human beings, and thus the end of the human life cycle. Euphemisms
Old people have limited regenerative abilities and are more prone to disease, syndromes, and sickness than other adults. For the biology of ageing, see senescence. The medical study of the aging process is gerontology, and the study of diseases that afflict the elderly is geriatrics.

There many young people think that Old People are boring, but that’s not true because
old people are always so nice to me and tell me so much about life. i see them as experienced in life lessons. in some movies they make old people seem mean and rude or REALLY sweet. i think they like to talk to us because they may see their old selves in us.

BAD LIVING CONDITIONS OF THE OLD PEOPLE IN THE DOMINICAN REPUBLIC

I read in the newspaper " EL DIA " the past month several reports about the bad living conditions of old people in our country, Dominican Republic.

Most of those old people don't have any money for support their expenditures, especially to buy medicine, food and clothes. they don't have help from anyone of their families, however there are many institucions and generous people that give them some help, but it is not enough because not always money is available for the number of old people who need some help.

this situation show us that is very hard to make old in the Dominican Republic where old people are like a " Big Problem or Big Garbaje Bags " for their families and the society.

Mostly old people in the Dominican Republic live in poverty and they are almost povertystrickens. this is the sad reality about our " Grandpas " and " Grandmas " in this little island.

old people

we call old people to those persons which have an advanced age. it can change from one culture to other, for example, in a country a person can be consider old after it is 60, or 65, in other it can be consider old after the age of 75, or 80. but what really care about those people is the treatment they receive in those different cultures and countries.
here in Dominican Republic, old people are depressible for younger ones. many of us look at then like a charge, like something useless, that the only they do is to make us spend money. also, the same society does nothing for those people. here, there is not retirement plans for then to support themselves after they are out of working. in this country get old without having an economical support to solve your problems means that you gonna suffer a lot of needs.

ELDERLY PEOPLE IN MODERN SOCIETY

Elderly people are the backbone of modern society . They have shown us and continue to show us what can be done and exactly how to do it. There is not enought respect for all the people that have gone before us. Elderly people have been "there" and done just about everything we can think about., they have the best life stories.

Elderly people are no different than the rest of us. They are older, a little less flexible and sometimes may have to think about things for a longer period of time.

In Asian Society, the elderly people are respected and looked up to. Unfortunately, in domincan society is not always true. Elderly people in our society are sometimes viewed as a nuisance and not valued for the wonderful people that they are.

Older people are sometimes told that they are useless, or just simply ignored.

we need to create conscience and make the difference when and elderly people talk to us or give us an advise.
