In America, older people rarely live with their adult children. But in many other cultures children are expected to care【C1】______ their aged parents. In some parts of Italy, the percentage of adult children who【C2】______ with their parents【C3】______ 65 to 70%. In Thailand, too, children are expected to care for their elderly parents; few Thai elderly live【C4】______ . What explains these differences in living arrangements【C5】______ cultures? Modernization theory【C6】______ the extended family to low levels of economic development. In traditional societies, the elderly live with their children in large extended family units for economic reasons.【C7】______ with modernization, children move to urban areas, leaving old people after in【C8】______ rural areas. Yet modernization theory can’t explain why such households were never common in America or England, or why families in fully modernized Italy【C9】______ a strong tradition of intergenerational living. Clearly, economic development alone cannot explain【C10】______ living arrangements.
Another theory associated intergenerational living arrangements with inheritance【C11】______ . In some cultures, the stem family pattern of inheritance overtakes.【C12】______ this system, parents live with a married child, usually the oldest son, who then【C13】______ their property when they die. The stem family system was once common in Japan, but changes in inheritance laws,【C14】______ broader social changes brought【C15】______ by industrialization and urbanization, have【】 the usage. In 1960 about 80% of Japanese over【C16】______ lived with their children; by 1990 only 60%【C17】______ a figure that is still high【C18】______ American standards, but which has been【C19】______ steadily. In Korea, too, traditional living arrangements are【C20】______ : the percentage of aged Koreans who live with a son declined from 77% in 1984 to 50 % just 10 years later.
