Summary/Abstract: In this article, we elucidate the aging process, delimiting the changes in the social context that affect the quality of life of people of the third age. We cannot escape the aging process. The moment we are born, the aging process begins. People have to conform to the stages of life and growth and change can often be seen as negative and unproductive, but without personal and physical development man cannot progress. Many changes can be viewed negatively by the society in which we live and with the passage of time, the first signs of aging appear.
