Age Discrimination - Ageism - Elder Abuse
“A process of systematic stereotyping of and discrimination against people because they are old, just as racism and sexism accomplish this with skin color and gender. Old people are categorized as senile, rigid in thought and manner, old-fashioned in morality and skills … Ageism allows the younger generations to see older people as different from themselves; thus they subtly cease to identify with their elders as human beings … - Robert Butler, "Being Old in America"
While not rampant on 11W, ageism seems to becoming more frequently seen here lately. I assume this is not permitted on 11W, but I haven't seen it discouraged either. Maybe I missed something.
