Answer to Question 1

True

Answer to Question 2

The low status of older adults is closely associated with ageism, which refers to discrimination and prejudice against people simply because they are old. Today many people react negatively to older adults. Ageism is like sexism or racism because it involves intolerance and unfair treatment of all members of a particular social category.
Ageism is evident in people's everyday language, by the use of terms that no racial or ethnic group would ever accept: old buzzard and old biddy. From a rational view, ageism makes no sense; those who delight in discriminating against older adults will one day be old themselves. If people believe that old age is ugly, they probably are guilty of ageism.
