Answer to Question 1

Answer: As a result of having more time alone than they have had in years, Ruth and Tom may find that they need to get to know each other again as individuals. In doing so they may find that the bonds that connected them as individuals have frayed, and they may separate. Conversely, they may find that their connection is stronger than ever and enjoy the extra time together. If they also have the task of care-giving for elderly parents, they may spend many hours per week parenting their own parents.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: TRUE
