• HERE IS MY TOPIC PROPOSAL AND SUMMARY

                                      Older People Dealing with the Decision of Work

For my literature review I really liked the topic of older people and the decision to stop working. As people age, their abilities and skills change, so when is it time for some older people to stop working all together? Some older people love working even after they realize they’re abilities are changing or it might not be the best decision for them to do so. Families play a key role in determining when the time is right for older individuals to stop working. Families are naturally concerned about the older individuals in their families who work. Families must guide older individuals to make the right decisions. Once a decision is made about whether or not to work anymore, the older individual and the family must decide what is next. Whether it is retirement, a different job, or just taking time off. This topic makes me wonder about older individuals role in society, what employment opportunities for those who continue to work. With those things in mind, the older individual has to wonder is it worth it to continue working or not. Naturally there are some stereotypes about older people, and with that some discrimination might be a result. Those are all things that older people and their families must consider when making these tough decisions.
