  • I love this video! AGE STRONG! I work for an organisation called HelpAge International and we work to tackle this kind of discrimination all over the world. It's so important that different generations don't lose touch with each other. Sharing information, building relationships, etc... is so important for communities. Anyway, I just wanted to say how much I enjoyed watching this! Come and find us on our Facebook page if you are interested in finding out more - HelpAge International.

  • It's not about "us" and "them" it's about all of "us" Some of "us" are 9, some 29, some are 99, but it's about "us." Nice!

  • It is all about family. Well produced.

  • awesome - everyone needs to watch this. I am 61 and I get attitude from teens on the street now. It is not pleasant to be treated like you are a "granny" that knows nothing and no longer can contribute to society. This is an important message!

  • We all need to realize we are all going to get old, treat elderly like you would want to be treated when you get to that stage in life. we all think it will never happen to us, but before you know it you will be retired. I am 24 years old and I was raised to respect elders, lets pass this knowledge to our youth. Our youth is our Future, but our elderly were our future and they did a damn good job!

  • nice video guys..great work!
