How Old Is Old?

I think people are considered old at the age of 75. These are my reasons why.

When people reach the age of 75 they've all retired from there jobs. So now they tend to sit around and get less active. After they retire they might even have to go live in a retirement home because they are to old to look after themselves(ex.can't bathe by themselves).

When you are 75 you may even have grand kids. This means that you have raised your kids now you can help your son or daughter raise there child. This also means that you have to buy them Christmas and Birthday presents. By the time your 75 you might even have great grandchildren.

As you get older you tend to get more health problems. By the time your 75 you might be living in the hospital because you cant breathe by yourself or you might be fighting a heart attack this can happen at any age but it tends to happen as you get older. When your in the hospital you can't leave whenever you want and you can't go to see your relatives at Christmas time or anything. But if eat healthy and excise when your your young this might not happen.

This is why I think 75 is old. But if you eat healthy and excise regularly and keep this up when you get older you won't be considered old.

  1. I like how you have organized your writing with an introduction, 3 supporting paragraphs, and a conclusion. Be sure to proofread to make your writing clear. (2)
