| Tiivistelmä: | In Europe, on average three times as many adult children help from time to time their parents with the housekeeping than do provide regular physical care. In the familial welfare states in Southern Europe with limited professional support available, provision of care by children is more likely, whereas parents in the North are more likely to receive help in the household or in dealing with the authorities. These differences can be traced back to the availability of social and health services in the individual countries using logistic multi-level models. There is a 'crowding in' of the help children give their parents, but a 'crowding out' of physical care. In general, the results based on the Survey of Health, Ageing and Retirement (or SHARE) data support the specialization hypothesis: professional providers take over the medically demanding and regular physical care, while the family is more likely to provide the less demanding, spontaneous help. Hence, the overall care of older people tends to be assured both quantitatively and qualitatively by well-developed service systems. |
