根据对我国东部、中部、西部5区县调查,发现农村独生子女老年父母家庭结构类型多种多样,但以单代老人家庭居多,空巢家庭接近六成。调查发现,婚姻离异的老年父母倾向与自己成年独生子女（家庭）分开居住;独生子女老人更愿意与儿子家庭居住在一起;如果唯一的孩子是女儿,老人单独生活的可能性上升;独生子女老年父母家庭空巢比例高,独女户老人在养老上最＂弱势＂。

The survey carried out in 5 rural counties of China,shows nearly 60% of the sampled aged parents with one-child in rural areas are living in empty nest families,which are composed by only aged parents and even more grandparents or grandchildren together,meanwhile the only adult-child is living apart from.The empty nest family makes the elderly parents face serious challenges of taking care themselves.We found the divorced elderly are more likely to be live alone,and the aged with only daughter are more likely to live alone rather than the elderly with only son.The results imply that these aged are the most vulnerable in terms of family care.
