F2b Financially Supporting Children and Parents’ Retirement Planning

Thursday, April 17, 2025 at 8:00 AM–9:30 AM CDT
Room 2
Short Description

Recent evidence shows that there has been an increase in the number of parents who are financially supporting their adult children. The concern is whether this is affecting parents’ retirement planning negatively. This study uses data from the 2021 National Financial Capability Study (NFCS) to examine how financially supporting young adult children is associated with parents’ retirement planning. The results suggest that individuals who financially support their young adults are less likely to have retirement accounts and are more likely to worry about running out of money in retirement compared to those who do not have financially dependent children.
