A is for Aging, B is for Birthdays: Changing Attitudes Towards Aging–OLLI Study Group (50+)
Osher Lifelong Learning Institute at U-M
Few deny our society bombards us daily with negative words and images regarding aging. But are we actively teaching age stereotypes to our children and grandchildren? We will explore and discuss both negative and positive messages in children’s literature. Learn how positive aging attitudes may extend life and how to help children view late life as a vital stage. All books discussed will be shared in class. Lindsey McDivitt has written several non-fiction books for children about aging.
