Why is it important to consider perspectives across different ages and what are three potential factors that may influence these perspectives across different ages.
Society is made up of different age groups, especially children, adolescents and adults. Most of the time, children and adolescents are not given enough importance in forming perspectives because of their inability to decide properly. Older adults are also not included in the decision making process due to their inability to function normally. It becomes more important for the adults to include everyone’s perspective while deciding one.
One of the most important thing that would affect the perspective across age group is the generation gap. People would be in three different generations that will have different perspectives about life, society, employment, family etc. Secondly, elders and children won’t be able to decide on themselves most of the time thus others decide for them. Finally, the cultural impact will affect the perspectives across the ages as well because the younger generation will have more exposure than the elders.
