Should young people follow older people’s advice or is it good for them to challenge older people’s opinions and thoughts. Discuss both views and give your own opinion.
Many people believe that the young generation should go along with the older generation's recommendations while others think it would be beneficial if young people question the elderly. In
this
essay, I am going to examine both points of view and Linking Words
then
give my own perspective on the matter.
On one side of the argument, there are people who argue the benefits of following older people's advice considerably outweigh its disadvantages. The main reason for believing Linking Words
this
is experience will help guide people through emergencies. Linking Words
For instance
, aircraft have a captain and a Linking Words
first
officer, and the captain always has to 5 or 8 years more experience than the Linking Words
second
in command because in cases of emergency, Linking Words
such
as flying through turbulence; the captain's advice helps to understand the circumstances more accurately. It is Linking Words
also
possible to say that older people have more social connections to help young people to open doors within society, so if they follow the advice well, they might get a letter of reference from their tutors or mentors.

On the other hand
, it is Linking Words
also
possible to make the opposing case. It is often argued that people must stand on their two feet in the long run. People often have Linking Words
this
opinion because they believe that the trial and error is an essential part of achieving success for young people. The Linking Words
second
point is that innovation always comes to challenging the conventional way. A particularly good example here is when 'From Software' decided to make video games; they were originally an accounting software company, but later they were able to create some of the best games in history because of some recommendations of a young new recruit.
In conclusion, I believe both arguments have their merits. On balance, Linking Words
however
, I feel that the young generation should follow their senior's guidance because they have more personal experience and connections, which is very useful to help young people's careers. Given Linking Words
this
situation, it is recommended that they respect older people and ask questions as much as possible in order to gain their trust.Linking Words
