According to the American Society on Aging….

Ageism is how we think (stereotypes), feel (prejudice) and act (discrimination) toward people based on their age. It happens when we think and behave as if a person’s age tells enough about them for us to make a judgement.

Ageism can affect all ages, for example, when we assume an older person can’t use technology or a younger adult can. Another example is when we see older adults portrayed as greedy and youngers as lazy. In reality, individuals are far more complicated.

Despite our good intent, we’ve absorbed the culture around us and may be
inadvertently promoting ageism. There are few hard and fast rules, but what follows are guidelines on age-inclusive communication.

It is also important to note that what feels ageist or disrespectful varies with culture, and we must make an effort to understand the values and context of our audience when communicating.

Today is Ageism Awareness Day! Follow us at Generations and learn simple ways that you can combat Ageism!
