elder relatives, I get their hand and, like, tap the back of their hand onto my forehead. it’s a tradition in my country. it’s somewhat kissing their hands too. and say polite greetings.
We are asking for blessings from the elders. Getting their hand, tap it on our forehead and say “mano po” (eng.bless me) and and the elders will say “God Bless You”.
I guess in just the same way as you would another person. You greet them when you see them, you don’t answer back and choose your words wisely when you’re around them.
Just by shaking hands and then there is no way an elderly person should stand when a young person is seated,one has to offer the seat as a way of respect.
