Ageing and family dependency
Abstract
Ageing is having a pronouced effect on elderly persons who find themselves estranged from the labour force and consequently more dependent on income and social service transfers; on relatives who find themselves bound up in caring arrangements; and the policy makers that apportion the resources towards the elderly population. This paper reports on a study of the effect of ageing on relatives who provide care for dependent elderly relatives.
