Why are the elderly so off-putting?
<|assistant|>
The elderly are often viewed as having outdated perspectives and opinions, and as being too set in their ways to adjust to changes. They can also come across as being stubborn, negative, and hard to please. Additionally, their physical and mental health issues can make them seem fragile and unapproachable. As a result, the elderly are often excluded from social gatherings and ignored by society in general. It can be hurtful to be treated with disrespect and taken for granted simply because of age.
