That is true. Some people are very patient and try to be silent without losing their cool. Such people may be regarded as weak personalities. But it is not true.
When Kauravas were refusing to give back the kingdom of Pandavas, Lord krishna who went as an ambassador asked Duryodhana to give 5 towns to Pandavas. Duryodhana and his group thought that Pandavas were not having required strength and refused. But they never thought that Dharmaraj is patient enough and trying to avoid a war which was no way desirable. Finally we all know what happened.
That is why some people always try to show off their abilities instead of being patient. They try to provoke others and see the drama. We should not take patience as inability. Anjaneya told Sita that he can take her on his shoulders to Rama but he is not interested in that as this will bring a bad name to Rama. He showed his patience and came back and informed the whereabouts of Sita to Rama.

The author is correct that our tolerance is sometimes taken otherwise and often regarded as weakness of our behaviour. True speaking they would not like to entertain any hostility with the other members of the families or some known persons. They would not like to loose their peace which they enjoy with their existing mindset.
The aged person people are vulnerable to high blood pressure, insomnia and other health issues and they don't want to invite such controversies for their sake of their health. Nothing is more important than their health issues and hence their stands seem to be justified.

There are some old people who are living with others because in old age they don't have any other alternative. But it does not mean that we should treat them in a bad fashion. Some of them will be very tolerant and patient and will not fight with those who treat them badly. These patient old people forgive others and do not mind the wrong things done to them. This is a very great quality. But we should also remember that if they retailiate or fight back then we may be in problem. The reason is that we might be living in their houses or we might be dependent on them for financial matters. So if they keep quiet on our bad behaviour then we should not take it as their weakness and should not repeat our bad behaviour with them.

When a person is much helpless he does no have much choices. So to the maximum extent he may tolerate humility and other sufferings.
But even for such a person there will be a maximum tolerance level. The tolerance will be only as far as the alternative is a worse situation. Bu when the existing situation goes so bad that the person feels that the alternative is far better then he 'escapes' o retaliates as a last resort of self defence.
We had any number of old movies where the hero who used to be a naïve and innocent, poor person ultimately breaks free of the exploitation and suffering and stands for himself to protect his dignity and security.
There are other situations when people tolerate because of their kindness, goodness and magnanimity. But when they understand that their leniency is misunderstood as weakness, they either quit or change approach.
