They are over doing it!
Who is the they??
Read on...

I know it's right to respect elderly.
I know it's right to give elderly priorities.
I know it's right for elderly to enjoy certain benefits.

BUT
don't do it till so extreme.
don't spoil them.

First, I want to give those people who gave up their seat(in train, in bus, etc) to the elderly a **CLAP**.
Next, I will like to give them a scolding too.
Cause they give up the seat blindly sometime.
You call that action Selfless,
I call it Stupid.

Recently, I saw many elderly sitting down in train.
I turn left and I turn right all the elderly have a seat.
They claim that they cannot stand long, because their legs are weak and couldn't support themselves.
But on the other hand, they are queuing for hours for free goodies, discount sales and even every morning you can see they go market early by 30mins plus just to queue for free newspaper.
They can't stand long. LOLS!!! So funny.
Some even make use of the priorities given to them.
They know it very well that nowadays many people giving up seat for elderly and they will squeeze their way through the crowd and stand at the sitting area.
They are spoiled by us all.
I saw this incident whereby a secondary school girl let up her seat to a not so old looking aunt and next the aunt sat down, slowly she move her butt towards the other girl(another secondary girl, friend of the first girl who let up the seat) beside, the aunt shout across the train and ask her husband to come sit and somewhat keep forcing her butt to make the girl stand up to and let up the seat too, to that not so old looking uncle.
See, another example of they using their so call RIGHTS.

And please don't give that "one of a kind" look when you see people not giving up seat for the elderly, SOME might have their reasons.
Example,
-people who have done operation before.
(you cannot see the scar etc, although they look normal and fit from the outside)

-people who really very tired and is carrying many things. Heavy bags etc.

I feel unfair for them.

Others has NO reason to judge and comment.
In addition, we PAY more.
Elderly they get to enjoy cheaper fare.
Some Elderly are even more fit and healthier compared to those youngsters.
They went jogging everyday or weekly.
They do tai chi.
They go ballroom dancing, line dance, even belly dance.
