I strongly believe wisdom comes with experience, not with age!. Www@QuestionHome@Com

This saying means more than what it reads!. Unless the meaning is understood in totality we will be misreading it!.
When it is said that wisdom comes with age it implies that as we advance in age we get a lot of wordly experiences !. Each of our such experiemces make us worldly wise!. An average active person is constantly undergoing experiences in life !. All these add upto his wisdom and , may be , some knowledge!. A person of , say 67 years of age , will have the WISDOM to know that life is far more organised and managed with Information technology and computers!. But at 67 he may not have the knowledge to use the computer well!. His wisdom will tell him that a 6 year old has a better knowledge of computer than him!
But a 6 year old will know more about the computers but will not understand why the 67 year old person is unable to use the computer!. The 6 year old does not have the wisdom to know that 61 years ago there were no computers at all!.!Www@QuestionHome@Com

It depends on the person and their attitude to life and learning!. Wisdom is more than knowing!. It involves understanding and learning by your experiences!. A 66yr old person with a healthy mind unaffected by any form of dementure is more capable than a 67yr old with dementure!. Aside from this age should be a progression in wisdom because a person has had more years in which to aquire knowledge and experience!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Not necessarily!.
Depends on the life lived and the experiences therein to be able to reflect and aide those who haven't seen what you've seen and then be able to accept that you haven't lived what others have and be able to soak in their knowledge and apply it to good use!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Many, but not all, studies find that adults' self-ratings of perspective/wisdom do not depend on age!.
This stands in contrast to the popular notion that wisdom increases with age!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

not really alot of ppl live in sheltered lil lives these days with not a worry in the world!.!.when someone much younger might have lived a hard life and struggled everyday!.!.so in theory the younger one might know more!.!.it just dependsWww@QuestionHome@Com

well a 66 year old that has been divorced is allot wiser than a 66 year old that hasn't!. But is all depends on life experiences!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
