The definition of learning covers so many situations.

"Don't you ever learn!" could be attributed to a parent criticising their child's poor life choices. "I welcome the opportunity to learn from you" indicates someone recognising another's input. "I'm learning to drive" shows a person is willing to try something new that will benefit them.

Learning has different paces and levels. For example, I'm in my early-sixties and feel I've learned more since my mid-forties than in earlier years. Some things still can't do, no matter how I try. Swimming is a block for me; will paddle in sea or laze in the pool, but run away at first sight of an instructor!

On a more serious note, earlier today I was tactfully trying to show my mother how unacceptable my brother and sister-in-law's behaviour is (see post My sister-in-law lashed out at me). Complete waste of time as she can't see anything wrong. A closed mind about their favourite child.
