| Annotation | For parents with mentally and physically disabled adult children, long term caring may affect their physical and mental well-being. This is a newly emerging problem in India, where life expectancy of the population is steadily rising. This study examines the caring burden of parents who are primary carers for adult disabled dependents, and the implications of this new trend. (RH). |
