There are a lot of stereotypes of aging because there is some false information surrounding aging as well as negative beliefs. For example, some people may think that depression and loneliness is normal in older adults, but it is not the case. The same thing with "all older people will get dementia." Not everyone will develop dementia. Negative beliefs that may surround aging are people not wanting to age. They feel like they may have to give up some of the things they love, falling into misinformation, and may talk negatively about it. What can we do? If we hear something that is incorrect we can correct it.
