Our well-being depends heavily on the family constellations in which we live, especially our position in the generational structure. Studies show that family relationships play a key role in health and well-being throughout the life course, especially in old age. The new study by Bettina Hünteler and Karsten Hank shows that these effects are complex and that multiple role transitions within a family system are crucial. People with a small “kinship reservoir” are more likely to suffer from physical impairments, while people in three-generation families are less likely to suffer from depression and physical impairments.
