许多人错误地相信,当人们步入老年,他们的家庭会把他们送至养老院.他们将在陌生人的手中渡此余生.而他们那已经长大成人的孩子,只会偶尔拜访他们,但更经常的是,他们没有任何定期的拜访者.事实是,这一想法是一个不幸的谬误——一个想象中的故事.实际上,家庭成员提供了老年人需要的照料的百分之八十.塞缪尔·普雷斯顿,一位社会学家,研究了美国家庭是如何转变的.他报道说当一般的美国夫妇到了四十岁,他们将会有更多的父母而不是孩子.此外,因为与几十年前的人相比,如今的人们能够禁受住疾病并能活的更长久,所以家庭成员要提供更长期的照顾.许多心理学家已经发现所有的照料着有一个共同点：所以照料者都相信他们是这一工作的最适人选.换言之,他们都觉得比其他任何人能胜任这个工作.社会工作者采访了这些照料者,想知道为什么他们能承担起照顾以为年老亲人的责任.许多照料者相信他们有义务照顾年老亲人.一些说帮助别人能使他们感到更有益.另一些希望,通过帮助一些人他们能够得到照顾当自己变得年迈、有依赖性.对每一个可能相关者来说,照顾老人和被照顾能够成为一个相互作用的令人满意的经历.
