Re: Re: Character advice?
Oh well, you've come to the right person - what do you want to know? Let me tell you, older people are just like younger people. We just have more experience. Older people have more life experience, that is.

So write people that are of a certain age as if they were your age. We may look older, but that doesn't mean we feel older. We may move a little slower, but that doesn't mean we can't move fast. We just choose not to.

And no, not all older people have health issues. Only those older people that haven't taken care of themselves.

Think of anything you own. Without proper care, it wears out. The same is true of our bodies. So eat right, exercise, don't drink or smoke. You'll live a lot better for a longer time.

Okay - preaching is over. Write older people as a younger person with 50 years of life experience.
