Paranormal Elder Abuse

Ok, so I was thinking how does normal human elder abuse compare to the paranormal? Well with vampires you generally get more powerful the older you get. So basically it doesn't happen cause you don't wanna screw with those old dudes. Werewolves generally don't get to be old. I don't mean they don't age. No I mean most books have a pack hierarchy that involves ranking by fighting. A lot of those fights end in a fatality. If you get to the top you're going to face constant challenge unless you make it clear that you're the mean mother f'er in the bunch. Then well even if you do get to be old you're not going to get screwed with. On the other end if you are at the bottom of the pack you've most likely been picked on and abused your entire life anyway so it wouldn't be so much elder abuse as life. When it comes to witches I think you have two possibilities. One is that it would be just like humans. Flip a coin you don't know how the person is going to treat the elderly. The other possibility is that they would be like the elders of the group. They know all the magic. You have to learn it from them.
