The curriculum offers an example of an stereotype as making a quick decision stopping a child from driving a car. I am not sure how we are supposed to interpret that. I think that is supposed to mean that the stereotype of a child is that they do not think rationally and don't think about safety so we stop them from doing something that we would not stop an adult from doing.
However, I don't think that is an example of a stereotype. You stop a child from driving a car because they can not legally drive a car, not because of a stereotype about children.
I don't know what an example of a stereotype that "can facilitate quick judgements in appropriate situations" would be. Opening this issue for discussion.
