Issues for study in Kinship
• Age of first becoming a Grandparent and withdrawal from workforce• Overseas resident Grandchildren and Grandparent travel• Overseas resident Grandparents and Grandchildren travel• Increased % of young adults with Grandparents
– Influence on more conservative values for young adults?– Grandchildren assisting Parents with carer roles for elderly relatives?– Gifting wealth for school fees and housing finance– Will step-children and step-grandchildren create
more or less options for elder care?
• Segregated retirement lifestyles– Retirees with Grandchildren– Retirees without Grandchildren
• Multi-generation households and unaffordable house prices
