Description

The number of middle-aged children today who have elderly parents is unprecedented. Having old parents, however, is rarely portrayed as a privilege. Too often parents are depicted as a problem for their adult children, in large part due to the disproportionate attention paid to the very frail, especially those with Alzheimer's disease. Rather than focusing only on adult children with very needy parents, the study reported in this book asked 149 pairs of siblings who had at least one parent over the age of 75 how they interacted with their elderly parents. The results are not only a more realistic picture of the full spectrum of later life families, but also a much more positive one. Written with minimal jargon, the book is intended not only for use in college classrooms but also for adult children and old parents who want to understand better their older family relationships. This special enlarged text edition is available exclusively at this location, from Unlimited Publishing LLC.
