Definition
- Family life for a midlife person is busy time, with significant changes and role transitions. Generally regarded as encompassing the years between 40 and 60, people during midlife typically experience significant changes in their family relationships, including caring for their parents and grieving their deaths, launching their young adult children, maintaining marriage/couple relationships, and becoming grandparents.
