Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? There is nothing that young people can teach older people. Use specific reasons and examples to support your position.

I have to totally disagree with the statement that there is nothing that young people can teach older people. For several reasons, which I will mention
bellow
in a position lower than
below
, I think that young people can teach older people many things.
First
of all, young people intend to learn new things faster. They faster learn new technologies.
Second
of all, young people are more motivated. They aspire to succeed and make a good career, which requires good knowledge and
experience
. So, they try to get more knowledge and
experience
from different sources like
Internet

the Internet
, books, newspaper, magazines and of cause from conversations with other people.
In addition
to

surprised everybody with his energy, a bunch of new and fresh ideas about what could be done to improve the process. He was the youngest person in the
team but

team, but
everybody listened to him and it was like a fresh air, an impulse, which made everyone work harder.
Finally
, young people often know more about new technologies.
For example
, my husband is 26 years old and he is a good professional in software development. So, he
is often asked

to read a lecture for different companies and

audiences
. Needless to say, the majority of people who attend those lectures are older than my husband. To sum up, I think that young people have many things to teach older people.
Moreover
, I think that people from every generation have something to learn from each other. People learn trough their entire lives from books that hold the
experience
and the history of previous generations as well as from their own
experience
and
experience
of the younger people.
