You can't just say older instantly = wiser.

Taking your logic a 42 year old will always be smarter and in a better position to make judgements than a 22 year old.

I never said it was! I'm not talking about intelligence - that is genetically determined. I am talking about knowledge - and a lot of that comes over time - as I said before - life experience!
