When you get to be in your 80s do you start to get more negative and criticize more and get more sensitive.

This depends on the person, and what type of personality they have, etc. However, it is very common in older people to get that way, but then again, people act like that at my age. :)

Hahaha thats funny. I don't think thats true, because I've seen people my age who criticize everything and are super-sensitive. I think its based on the person and their character.
I think that for the most part, people who turn out to be more negative and sensitive when they are older is because they face the physical and mental reality that they will, eventually, die. A very touchy-feely subject for people in our society today. Think about it - how would you live your life if people treated you or reminded you that you aren't going to be around much longer... I don't know about you, but that would set in a negative vibe for me. So maybe that has something to do with it.
Also, our society immortalizes being young. The biggest department in those big stores like Macy's or Bloomingdales is the cosmetics section - full of an infinite array of creams, pills, powder, and make up that guarantees to make you look better (and they claim) feel younger, which in turn makes you feel better. I think a lot of factors go into why somebody might be a bit condescending when they are senile, but for the most part, it depends on the person. Hope that helped.

It really depends on the person and what kind of life they led.
I know if I ever make it to 80, I will probably be one grouchy old bird.

People age differently. Some become grumpy, others become senile, some dont change much at all.
I guess the only answer to your question is not neccesarily.
