▶ Your Answer :
Some people think that grand parents cannot give useful
advice to their grandchildren. However, in my opinion, they can give a lot of
helpful advice. This is because grand parents have a great amount of experience
and there are unchangeable things in our life.
To begin with, older
people have a wide variety of experience and it can be useful. To explain, if
there are a lot of experience, the number of advice they can give will
increase. I believe experience is one of the most important factors of life in
the world. By living and getting old, people can not only gain diverse experience
but also broaden their horizon of the world. Therefore, grand parents must have
enough experience and the eyes to give appropriate advice.
For example, when I was in
college, I prepared to study abroad. However, I did not know anything about
foreign countries, so it was difficult to find suitable place to study. Until
that, I never know my grandmother had been to abroad many times. When I asked
her about my troubles, she gave me a lot of things, such as characteristics of
the American people, their lifestyle, the location and weather. Moreover, she
recommended Singapore for me because their culture is more similar to ours than
Americans. She said Singapore is more easy to adapt for me. Eventually, I
choose Singapore and I was the best decision I made.
Second, something does not change
regardless of time. To be specific, the importance of family is always
prioritized and grand parents might know well about that. Also, through their
life, they could gain normal but crucial things for all generation, such as the
way of living life wisely. These kind of things would be very useful for their
young grandchildren.
To give an anecdote, my friend
married a few years ago and she had a baby. She always lacked sleep because her
baby did not sleep at all at night. I told her to ask the solution to her
grandmother. After she asked, grandmother gave her many knowhow. She taught how
to hug baby comfortably and helped my friend to rearrange furniture to feel her
baby relaxed. The effect was amazing. Her baby began to sleep well! It was
surprised and great story.
To sum up,
grand parents can have a various, great amount of experience to be useful.
Moreover, their advice for lessons of life can be appropriate. In this regard,
I firmly believe that grand parents can give useful, helpful advice to their
grandchildren for the reason I mentioned above. |
