Abstract
Economic models of intergenerational relations in developing countries revolve around the idea of a contract: parents look after the young in return for support in old age. Using comparative data on intergenerational relations amongst the poor in rural and urban south India I argue that it is unwise to base policy measures on a model that cannot capture the complex and shifting patterns of family relations.
