We want to shout about the amazing feats retirees have achieved in their lifetime and put the spotlight on the wonderfully colorful lives of today's older people We are calling on parents and children to talk to their grandparents, to find out what they have done in their lives - and continue to do, and tell us all about it so we can give them the credit they deserve.” Researchers found that although 65 per cent of youngsters see their grandparents every single week, 37 per cent claim this is only because their parents want them to And while 39 per cent talk to their grandparents on the phone, Facebook or Skype at least once a week - 16 per cent once a day - conversation is rarely focused on what they are doing or have done in the past Four in 10 kids have no idea what their grandparents proudest achievements are, while 30 per cent don't know if they have any special skills or talents And 42 per cent don't spend any time talking about their grandparent's history -and are therefore clueless about what their grandmother or granddad was like when they were younger Perhaps due to this lack of communication and respect, just six per cent of children say they look up to their grandparents as a role model and inspiration However, grandchildren are agreed their grandparents are both loving and friendly, while 43 per cent think they're funny - with 23 per cent admitting they often have more fun with their elderly relatives than their parents (Source: https://www.independent.co.uk) Question 44 Which of the following could be the best title of the passage?
