Attitude Towards Aging

Swiss people have a very relaxed attitude towards aging. Compared with other countries, numbers of cosmetic surgery are very low in Switzerland, which shows that Swiss respect the fact that they are aging. In public transportation, on the other hand, it can be seen that young people do not respect the elderly as much as some years ago. When I was growing up, it was custom to give up your seat in favor for an elderly. Nowadays, young people are not anymore aware of the appropriate courtesy.
