No full textBoomerang kids and parents' well-being: Adaptation, stressors, and social norms
No full textPrevious research has shown that living with an adult child affects the well-being of parents. However, little is known about parental adaptation to changes in living arrangements or about concomitant stressors that may moderate the effect of adult children returning to the parental home. Drawing on data from eight waves of the UK Household Longitudinal Study (2009-2017), I use distributed fixed effects linear regression models to analyse changes in parents' symptoms of depression before, during, and after a child's return to the parental home. The results show that parents experience an increase in symptoms of depression when a child returns home but recover to their previous levels of mental well-being in the subsequent year. Unemployed and low-income children returning home are associated with larger increases in parents' symptoms of depression, whereas there are no effects with regard to union dissolution. These findings support the hypothesis that children returning home are more detrimental to older parents if it occurs in concomitance with an economic crisis in the child's life. However, after a short-Term decline in their well-being, parents are able to adapt to boomerang moves and accustom themselves to the new family dynamics

Marital break-up and intergenerational relationships in Italian families
No full textSome studies have found that marital break-up has a negative impact on individuals' well-being and their children's life chances; while others have shown that divorced parents - especially fathers - have less frequent contact and lower quality of relationships with adult children than married parents. In this study, I adopt a within-family approach to investigate how the negative effect of parental divorce is distributed between father- and mother-child relationships within the same family. I use data from the Family and Social Subject Survey 2009 to examine parent-child contact frequency many years after parental divorce. In line with previous research, the results show that fathers' disadvantages are larger among divorced than intact families. Gender inequality decreases as children are older at the time of parental divorce and increases as they live with the divorced mother for longer. The findings show that the negative effect of parental divorce on father-child contact is partly explained by the time that children and fathers spent under the same roof, thus suggesting that shared residence has important implications on later intergenerational relationships
