在全世界的工业化国家,年迈的父母及其“年老”子女是一个日益增长的群体。然而,几乎没有人知道这种关系星座的性质和影响。为了填补这一空白,本研究探讨了非常古老的亲子关系的挑战和回报。对114对亲子配对(父母年龄≥ 90岁;子女年龄≥ 65岁)进行了深入访谈。虽然挑战和奖励都存在,但挑战和奖励的平衡对于总体上经历更多挑战的儿童来说明显不太有利。儿童报告的挑战往往是儿童自己的高龄和健康问题,以及由于父母长寿而长期参与。医疗保健专业人员,政策制定者和家庭应该意识到这一日益普遍的现象,并需要具体的服务和政策来充分支持非常老的成年人及其家庭。
Very old parents and their “old” children are a growing group in industrialized countries worldwide. However, virtually nothing is known about the nature and implications of this relationship constellation. To fill this gap, the present study explored the challenges and rewards of the very old parent-child relationship. In-depth interviews were conducted with 114 parent-child dyads (parent age ≥ 90; child age ≥ 65). While both challenges and rewards were present, the balance of challenges and rewards was notably less favorable for children with more challenges experienced overall. Challenges reported by children were often characterized by references to children’s own advanced age and health problems, and the prolonged caregiving involvement due to their parents’ longevity. Healthcare professionals, policy makers, and families should be made aware of this increasingly common phenomenon, and specific services and policies will be needed to adequately support very old adults and their families.
