内容説明
Examine the changing structure of the family as America's population ages!
As the United States' economy evolves and manufacturing jobs disappear, the prospect of each generation experiencing a standard of living that exceeds that of their parents' generation also disappears. Challenges of Aging on U.S. Families: Policy and Practice Implications explores this trend, presenting the latest original research on the changing roles of caregivers along with the economic and emotional effects on the family unit. Respected authorities discuss in detail long-term care and the standard of living of families, with a focus on the effects of changing family structures on families themselves and society at large.
The coming boom in the population of the aging will impact families at several levels. Challenges of Aging on U.S. Families thoroughly examines the economic demands of aging on families, then focuses on different roles elderly family members are likely to play over the next several decades. Some of the issues explored include skipped generation parenting where children are raised in grandparent homes where neither parent is present, the impending economic impact of caregiving on families, the stress on families with fewer siblings to share the caregiving tasks, and the tendency for family members to live in different parts of the country and subsequently become unable to offer caregiver support. Detailed tables provide clarity of thought while comprehensive bibliographies offer further opportunity for study.
Challenges of Aging on U.S. Families discusses:
the economics of aging
the implications of aging economics and emotional stress on the future of families
the coming labor shortage of caregivers
family-based intervention in residential long-term care
shifting relationships between parents and their children caregivers
self-esteem issues involving daughter caregivers
paying family caregiversas public policy
a proposed policy of requiring adult children to care for their aging parents
inheritance and intergenerational transmission of parental care
the inherent psychological stress within skipped generation families
Challenges of Aging on U.S. Families: Policy and Practice Implications is an eye-opening text for researchers, health professionals, social workers, counselors, caregivers, educators, and students.
