Respect

Heads up for the younger generation.

Calling a crone/ elderly person "cute" is in my opinion a insult .

I know it's meant as a term of endearment, I however struggle with it.

They are far from cute to me, the definition of cute is "ugly but interesting "

I know it's just a word , but I'm hearing it heaps in regards to the elderly.

Serious ? How about :

Amazing

Wise

Remarkable

Respect

They have lived, loved and lost.

The wisdom that comes with age , is invaluable.

They are not children , which the term is usually reserved for.

Spend time with a elderly person ,listen and you may learn a thing or two.

Another heads up - if I make into my 80's or 90's and I happen to go into care, like a nursing home.

If someone calls me cute- fair warning,

I'll throw a fucking chair at you !

Rock on
