gurus ours is an age caught up in idealism flower power and universal brotherhood but there seems to be a faction of society to which young people tend to be indifferent the elderly those in the olderthanparent age group parents we often resent the elderly we ignore while i could hardly knock the virtues and advantages of youth we must take into consideration that most of the elderly simply
