Why Do I Blog At My Age? Part 2

The second part [but third post] in my guest post series at the Wardman Wire is now up:

In the first post of this series, I wrote about blogging whilst “just” 22. I suggested that there was a pretty much definite positive correlation between age/”life experience” and the “worth” of opinions. In this post, I am going to pick a few holes in that premise. As I mentioned in Part 1.5, Graachi and Matt Sinclair wrote posts replying to it, and picked on the main point I am going to write in this post: that age is not everything.
I started making this argument in the conclusion of the first post in this series, where I said:
Nevertheless, young people are the future of this country and of the world. Our opinions do deserve to be taken seriously, even with some adjustments. I blog, even though I am just 22, because I think that the voice of my age group does need to be heard. We see the world in a different way to generations before us.

Not only does the voice of my generation need to be heard, it needs to be taken seriously.
