Quizplus · Accepted Answer

During middle adulthood, parents tend to shift from providing direct care for their children to providing more emotional and practical support. This often means giving more assistance (financial, emotional, or practical) to their young adult children than they receive in return. However, this does not imply that they do not receive any support in return, as adult children also provide their parents with various types of support, such as companionship, advice, and assistance with daily activities. Additionally, the relationship between parents and young adult children tends to be characterized by greater mutual respect and open communication, rather than tension or little communication.
