Age is approached differently depending on our culture. In some
parts of the globe, age is equated with wisdom, respect and
honor. In other areas we see aging as being a burden. It is based
largely on our perspectives and our cultural background.
For this discussion, you’ll use both the book and outside
sources. We’ll think about aging is approached around the
world, we’ll look into media images and we’ll talk a bit on
ageism.
Please respond to
all
of the following prompts:
Describe how aging is viewed in the United States.
Describe how aging is viewed in one other country of your
choice.
List 1-2 examples from the media that support how we view
aging in the United States (i.e., Botox ads, etc.).
What is ageism? What can be done to deter this?
Apply symbolic interactionism to how we view aging.
