Many animals exhibit parental care behavior, including feeding, grooming, and protecting young offspring.

  • A minority of elderly not living with children were childless; most had non-coresident children available.
  • Daily contact levels for elderly living alone were similar to those living with children.
  • Differences in support and proximity were observed between urban and rural elderly.

Conclusions:

  • Separate households may function as integrated units, with non-coresident children providing support.
  • Geographical proximity and family support networks are key factors for elderly well-being in Thailand.
  • Urban and rural elderly experience different forms of support from non-coresident children.
