When the aging person depends on another, the control of the aged one's life space is placed in the hands of another person who may or may not contribute action energy that is appropriate or acceptable from the standpoint of the ager .

Inappropriate behavior then erupts from the agers' involved, disturbing everyone around, including the ' agers themselves, who often do not understand what is happening and struggle excessively to maintain rigid control of old perceptions and self images.

This definition of success is located in society's structures and suits society, not the agers . Successful ageing is arguably therefore a socially constructed phenomenon, characterized by lack of “noise,” maintenance of youthful status until death, and a dogged engagement with social structures which appear almost as if designed to discourage the engagement of older people.

Noun
