This is one of the questions that gerontologists have been wrestling with for some time now, the question of whether each cohort or group of older adults is going to be the same. In some sense, I think in general, we would say yes. People do, throughout life and as they grow older, have social needs and health needs.
It also has to be known that each group of older adults is living in a different kind of social setting with different sorts of major events and economic climate. Those are the things that are extraordinarily difficult to forecast.
We know some things like adults at middle age right now are far more likely to be in the labour force, particularly women, than were women of the generation who are now over age 80. This in itself means that they have different trajectories in terms of their income, their availability to provide care for others, etc. So that's just one small example about how things may be different because of the circumstances of this next group of people who are growing older.
