Multiple Generations Living Together

What are the keys to creating one big, happy family?

Multiple Generations Living Together

Historically, a lot of families lived together for economic reasons, but in this episode we look at families who have chosen to live together for mutual support. Are more people returning to this way of life or is it something that works well for only a small percentage of our population?

According to the 2000 census, nearly 4 million American households are made up of three or more generations living together! As baby boomers get older, experts predict three generation households will become even more common.

This episode introduces us to some families who are adjusting to the challenges and joys of life in the multi generational home. What are the keys to creating one big, happy family?
