Grandparents and Adult Grandchildren: What Do They Do for One Another?
Langer, Nieli
International Journal of Aging and Human Development, v31 n2 p101-10 1990
Examined functional exchange of services, emotional (expressive) and tangible (instrumental), between noninstitutionalized Jewish grandparents (n=118) and adult grandchildren. The results indicated that the majority of grandparent-adult grandchild relationships were not reciprocal; grandparents perceived that they received more than they gave. (Author/ABL)
