Item 3
Escape to a kid-free village
Retirement hamlets that ban children are
such a hit that over-45s now have them too
The following apology was printed in the Observer's
For the record column, Sunday May 18, 2003
We were
stretching a point in describing Hartrigg Oaks, the Rowntree Foundation's
continuing care retirement community in York ,
as a place 'where children fear to tread'. The development includes a 50-place
day nursery where several residents help as volunteers.
For those
driven to distraction by screaming children in the local pub and library, a
brave new world beckons. The days of dodging skateboarders and worrying about
meeting threatening youths after dark are over. Adults-only villages have
arrived.
Anyone under 45 is exlcuded from the new developments,
modelled on retreats that have been hugely successful in the United States .
Residents can play golf, relax in the swimming pool or spend an afternoon
reading, all safe from interruption by noisy kids and flying football…

Type of
bias: Scapegoating
·
Analysis: The
writer mentioned a new kind of place only for adults over 45. This kind of area
is isolated and children or teenagers, people under 45 is not allowed to
enter. The root of this new development lies in the fact that old people cannot
enjoy the quiet or peaceful atmosphere with the presence of the young. The
children ( the young in general) are blamed for the noisy environment and that
the old cannot live in the same surrounding with others.
Hey Bao,
ReplyDeletethe first thing I want to tell you that your entry is very interesting and impressive especially the first item. Good job,friend !.
However, there are some points in the third item I want to talk about. The type of bias is not only the scapegoating but also prejudice when suggesting that youths and kid always noisy and making problems.
