How much does experience matter in giving your opinion?

Do you have to be something to know about something?
Questions about parenting often see a lot of input from non-parents, who claim their opinions are just as valid as those of parents. But are their opinions just as valid? What about people who don’t have a mental illness or have never been suicidal giving their opinions about mental illness and suicide? Or people who’ve never experienced racism giving their opinions about racism in the U.S.? Does it depend on the opinion they’re voicing?
When does experience matter and when does it not?
