Examined parent-adolescent communication in 62 families of middle-adolescent children in which at least 1 parent was providing assistance to an aging grandparent. Study results illustrate the usefulness of combining life-span development and family systems theories to serve as framework for understanding parent-adolescent communication in a multigenerational context.
