Why don’t you think charging different prices to people of different ages is age discrimination?

Isn’t it already pretty standard? Discounts for children, students, and seniors are all typically age based.

Children's discounts are still charged to the parents paying.

Student discounts are based on whether you're a student (something I can become at age 50 if I wanted to).

Seniors, well, I don't have an answer :)

"Standard" and "Not discrimination" are not the same thing.
