This research paper: 6 pages in length. Respect for the elderly is a fast dwindling characteristic of American society. Historically revered for their sage wisdom and life experience, the older sect of society in contemporary society is treated as more of an imposition rather than a valued cultural commodity. Quoting Traxler, Woolf (2007) defines ageism as "any attitude, action, or institutional structure which subordinates a person or group because of age or any assignment of roles in society purely on the basis of age" (Woolf, 2007); as such, it is clear how this "ism" has infiltrated virtually every aspect of society to the extent where seniors are often treated with indignity and contempt. Bibliography lists 6 sources.
