How to use "Older" in context?
people
When we think of older people, many stereotypes come to mind: they're cranky, they're lonely, they don't have any friends left. But while some of these statements may be true, there are also plenty of senior citizens who enjoy their lives and are full of life.
Aging doesn't have to be a negative experience. Many seniors have thriving social lives and are quite active outside of the house. They often have a wealth of experience to share and are an invaluable source of knowledge for anyone younger. Some seniors even enjoy working in their spare time.
