| description | The purpose of this article is to examine the links among adult children's perceived responsibil
ity to care for elderly family members, otherfamily needs, and their use offormal services. Care
givers in 15 families providing assistance to a parent or parent-in-law were interviewed about
their responsibilities to their relatives and their reasons for using or not using community ser
vices to help with caregiving. The results indicated that perceived responsibility included
responsibility both to the parent and to other family members. Reasons for using services
included both care recipient considerations as well as caregivers' personal and marital con
cerns. Respondent families sought assistance from formal services in order to balance parental
safety needs with caregiver needs for personal and marital fulfillment. When caregivers experi
enced physical or emotional limitations, they hired help. Implications for practitioners provid
ing services to caregiving families are discussed |
