Especially considering how reliant we humans are on knowledge, without the previous generation teaching us we're pretty well doomed.

Old people would have been highly valued just because they're sitting on decades of knowledge and wisdom, in an age without permanent records of information grandma would have been the only source of information about the past, and would presumably spend most of their time just sharing that knowledge with everyone else.
