This age group includes teenagers and young adults. In our discussion we came up with the idea that you stop being young after the age of 25. Teenagers, toddlers, children and young adults are all classed in this group.
Some stereotypes:
- argumentative
- moody/hormonal
- arrogant
- gangs/crime
- lazy
- rude
- ASBO's
- noisy
- modern
- druggies
- outgoing
- trouble makers
- sex
- immature
- criminals
- rely on others
- teenage pregnancies
- different sub groups e.g. chav, emo and goth
- easy targets
- get blamed for the corrupted society
We came to the conclusion that people around the age of 60-65 are classed as 'old'. Basically around the age of retirement. It also depends on what job someone has. For example a person at the age of 40 who is a footballer, they are classed as 'old' and will have already retired or are considering retirement. But someone at the age of 40 who is a politician is 'young' and may been seen to lack seriousness or experience.
