Abstract

Using the data from “china health and retirement longitudinal study” in 2013, employing the generalized linear model and logistic regression analysis, It is founds that there is division of labor and replacement between children either in financial support or emotional support to meet the various requirements of elderly. The birth order and gender of children have a significant impact on the intergenerational resources transfer, the quantity and gender of grandchildren have a significant impact on the motivation, and the factors of distance, migration and caring for grandchildren cannot be ignored.
