text: It can be beneficial to you when you ask for different peoples advice. It can strengthen your ability to view all parts of the situation, which leads the ability to make the best possible choice you can make, in any given situation. Also, some people might have more experience with the sort of situation you are in. For example, a person that is 15 might not have that good of advice for, let's say, parenting. Their advice is not valid because they have no experience. However, going to someone else, like a person in their thirties to forties, would have a much better advice that would help you in the situation, because they have had at least five to ten years of experience behind them.
