[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think it’s funny how people responded that it’s because young people don’t treat them well - how does this explain when old friends start fighting about inconsequential stuff among each other? How does a young person in a store cause an old man to scream insults at an old woman or an old woman arguing with her loving and helpful daughter?[/quote] This. My mother is a great example of how it's brain related. She has always had a difficult side to her, but with age certain aspects of impulse control/filter atrophied. Yet, on medication she is even kinder than she was before aging. She can handle people disagreeing with her, long wait times at the doctor's office, someone not bending to her will or just about anything on medication. Her mother was the same way. Nobody could work with her and doctors just fired her until she was properly medicated. It wasn't everyone else's fault. It was her brain wiring.[/quote]
