Over the past decades, many Western countries have struggled to meet increasing long-term-care (LTC) demands owing to population ageing. Long-term-care systems had to implement austerity measures, while family sizes have shrunk. This potentially places more pressure on adult children who might struggle to meet their parents’ care needs, even when they are willing and able to support them. However, it is unclear to what extent LTC policies impact on care-giving patterns of adult children. This asks for a comparison of filial care-giving across time periods. Therefore, the present study investigates to what extent the relationship between filial care-giving and characteristics of adult children, their siblings and their parents has changed between 2001 and 2023. To this end, data from two ancillary studies of the Longitudinal Aging Study Amsterdam (LASA) were used, providing information about Dutch older adults’ health and support by their adult children. From the 2001 study, data from 220 parents and 830 children were included, and data from 115 parents and 288 children were included from the 2023 study. Results indicate that parents’ and siblings’ characteristics had overall comparable associations with filial care-giving in 2001 and 2023. However, the gender gap between adult sons’ and daughters’ care-giving has diminished over time. These findings suggest that, despite LTC changes, characteristics of parents, adult children and siblings played a similar role in filial care-giving, but a cultural shift towards more egalitarian distribution of care responsibilities between men and women emerged.
