Representation Of Age

In todays lesson, we were asked to look at how age is represented by the media and make a list of classic stereotypes that the media uses for both old people and young people (teenagers). Here is a brief list that i came up with for teenagers:
  • Sleepy
  • Drug addicts
  • Cheeky to parents
  • Bored
  • Intimidating
  • Violent
  • Disrespectful
  • Uninterested in their education
And here is a brief list for old people:
  • Slow
  • Always moaning
  • Nosey
  • Incontinent
  • Unhappy
  • Deaf
  • Anti-youth
  • False teeth
Here is a presentation that i made on the representation of Kevin from "Kevin And Perry":
