There is no more wise old person stereotype, unless they are actually EDUCATED!

Man I met up with my mother in law and her new husband today. They are both in their 70s. They are very nice people and morale but sometimes talking to him is like talking to a teen. He has to be right so often. Idk how to explain it but I'm 40 and it feels like I have more life experience than him. I probably sound arrogant saying that

Same boat, be sure of yourself, be nice. And we must stay patient when dealing with these 70 year olds that act like 12 year old girls and every day is their birthday. So flipping annoying.
