Seminar paper from the year 2014 in the subject Pedagogy - Pedagogic Psychology, grade: 1,3, Free University of Berlin (Erziehungswissenschaften und Psychologie), language: English, abstract: This paper will present the idea that adultism, the discrimination against children in society, can be exhibited in a physical nature as well as a mental nature.

The result of this order is not only that its makes the lives of the affected individuals, in this case the children, less convenient and comfortable, but it also can lead to very dramatic outcomes, when for example the emergency planning of buildings only takes adults into consideration.
