Sir/Ma'am, it doesn't matter who you are reporting to. What matters is whether a person can manage or lead your team or not.
Whether that person helps me to grow professionally in my future or not. That person has more knowledge and experience; that's why they are in that position.

I feel proud and motivated and try to learn from them, actually, I am reporting to the person who has more knowledge, and experience and is more qualified compared to me. So I am happy to report because it is beneficial for the company.

I am an open-minded individual, if it is my job I don't have any shame in reporting to a person who's younger than me.

Reporting is to be done based on skill, knowledge, job title so yes I will definitely report to he/she based on the work they ask me to report on. It's a part of work.

Seniority at work is not about age, but rather about the knowledge, experience, and good works, reporting to a younger person than me is nice because I gain more from him/her.

Yes of course. Age does not matter because he is talented so that he is in that position without any feeling I will report that person. I will take him as my inspiration to grow thoroughly and work hard for it.

In a professional world, age doesn't matter as long as the superior is equipped with the right skill set and experience. So, I don't mind reporting to a younger person.

Sir, age doesn't matter because age shows only number. He is more knowledge and experience of his work. We can take him as a role model and inspiration for us. And I respect his position.
