This article examines changes over 16 years in the relationship of older people with their children and siblings. Using a multivariate methodology two types of relationship are identified in a study population. Looks at the distribution of these types; explores differences between relationships with children and how the relationships change over time. Finally the policy implications of the findings are discussed.
