I remember when I was young, I thought anyone over say 50 was old. Not that I am 47 in 2009, makes me really think about it. True our bodies get older with time and we start facing health related issues, but this does not mean, that we are loosing it. Our aging process is slowing down, the 60's generation cant be compared to the 40's and 20's for the exception of Hugh Hefner in picture. My kids are 10 years old and they think that Dad and Mom are Kool, they know music, heavy in particular, they both drive bikes, they are adventurous and yet they are both nearing 50. 9/18/2008
What age is considered “OLD” these days?

i have thought about this for long time ... to me age is relative ... if you collect a group of 20-years old ppl they won't be the same, one will be acting like a 20 years old and another will be acting like a 15 years old ...
it really depends on a lot of factors
...
nemo that is true, also some would be more mature like 25, but my point is not about acting or maturity, its is more related to what age does the young generation consider old?
hmm yes .. the first thing that came to my mind when i read your post is 50+ BUT then i realized that my mom and dad are approaching 50 and they are not old akeed!!!!!!! i still fight with them over the same stuff, i really dont feel that big difference when i talk them about anything, they are still cool and look good.
so maybe its 70+ now?
and just to add one more thing ... I do feel sometimes that im older than my mom and dad because i'm always home while they are always out!
