Anne's speech is a perfect example of why I think we should respect, value and honour our elders. They are not a burden and an impediment to chasing the almighty dollar (or Pound if you're a Brit like me). More often than not they are the best people to ask for knowledge and wisdom, priceless qualities that we need to move our lives forward. Every ancient society (and perhaps "primitive" by our standards) knows to respect their elders for this reason. Every tribal society respects their elders. Even in rich, well developed nations like China and Japan elders are respected. It has become a societal trend in the West to put grandma in a home the moment she causes us any work. I say NONSENSE! Look after your own, listen to them and you will benefit from it.

She did. The same skills as he had. You couldn't have tuned that speech out if you tried.

This speech should be broadcasted once a day in every country of the world - everyday until we can stop not listening to the other side of an argument.
