Thanks for stepping into this ring Di. The discussion needs to keep going and get into how we can get past ageism. I believe this is the next ism to make inroads with and I hope we as Boomers can do our part to bridge the chasm and that those younger will do their part in reaching across the aisle as well.

Hey Di- I enjoyed this piece and thought of some work I did years ago that might be of interest

Don't know if you've heard about the research, but for 8 years I was the Communications consultant for the John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation's Health Network for Successful Midlife in America project that explored Physical Health, Psychological Well-being and Social Consciousness. It is referred to as MIDMAC on the MacArthur Foundation website. I was fortunate to work with some of the world's best medical doctors, academic psychologists and psychiatrists, demographers and sociologists in designing and piloting and finally implementing a large, comprehensive survey of Americans about these topics. The survey data are rich and I believe could be helpful to you as you continue with your work.. We released the final survey findings in January, 1998. A look at “midlife in America” around that time frame should result in your finding the information. The study resulted in several books

Best regards,

Jane Kidd

Понял не совсем хорошо.... It is time to call ageism out into the open, and name it for what it is: just another form of prejudice.....
