Description
Rachel Scott and Danielle Nadorff ask what keeps grandparents well, in a 2023 study of family ties across ages. Warmth between the old and the young has long been tied to better health for the old. Less clear is whether sharing the same faith and political views adds to that gain, or takes from it. The pair draw on a long-running study of families tracked across years.
They lined up 336 grandparent and adult child pairs and 239 grandparent and grandchild pairs. Warmth ratings across all three age groups shaped how well grandparents felt. Gaps in faith views between grandparents and grandchildren also played a part. On the whole, warmth counted most, and shared views weighed less than many might guess, the authors conclude.
