Do you agree or disagree with the following statement?
Getting advice from older friends is more valuable than getting advice from friends at your age.

There is a popular saying in Chinese and is widely accepted: “if one do not listen to olders, he or she will suffers losses right soon”, that is to say, the advices from orders are very important, and worth our consideration. Though, it is not completely means that the value of getting notions from older friends outweighs that of cotemporary friends; in most of case, as far as I am concerned, it is really true for a couple of reasons.

Admittedly, since our peer friends have the same interests and tastes with us; thus, by standing from our sides, they are more likely to offer us significant advice. Nevertheless, even though their views might be matching our preferences, actually, their advice is not totally good for us. For example, when I am boring with my study, my roommates always suggest me to play net-games with them all of the day. On the contrary, my older friends will try to encourage me to learn other interesting knowledge instead of playing video games. And we always find our parents too annoyed who always urge us to study, but their hearts entirely put on us.

Besides, the older friends have more experiences than us; and therefore, whose advice is more valuable than that of my cotemporary friends, especially in the case that they have faced the same problem before. I clear remember when I am in high school facing the terminal examination, I fall in love with a beautiful girl in my class. I conceded that it is really happy when we are together, but it also took me a lot of time from studying. When I was confusing with this problem, my classmate suggested me insist following my own affection not caring about study. But one of my older friends ,who was studying in college that moment, said to me that the task of study is the most important thing rather than keeping loving; if I lost my study for this short term, I will regret in the future for choosing this way. Finally, I listened to older friend and focused on study after that. Now I have to say without a doubt that he is right, since at that moment I am too young to distinguish which is more important. That is to say, by standing on a higher place, our older friends can bring us more valuable ideas.

In sum, although our peer friend's ideas always match our tasty, we need to pay more attention to that of older friends who possess more experiences. Of course, the best way is to consider both of the two kinds of opinions, but finally, we will find that the order’s advice is more helpful.
