It's funny how people change as they age. With my own father and grandfather, they've each become kinder and more accepting of others as they approach 60 and 90 respectively. I would expect that to be more the norm as people are more exposed to different viewpoints and people as they grow older. I wonder what circumstances could cause people to go backwards figuratively as they age? Humanity is so interesting.
