Joshua is an economist who is growing older, and the principles of economics are causing him to be concerned that his children may not wish to care for him as he grows older unless he can provide for them an incentive for doing so. Which of the following implications of communal relationships would be useful for Joshua to know? a. Children who take care of their elderly parents should do so only because their parents need help, not because they expect a benefit in return
b. Children who take care of their elderly parents should do so only to repay them for taking care of them earlier, not because their parents simply need help.
c. Children are unlikely to take care of their elderly parents if they have a secure attachment style.
d. Children are unlikely to take care of their elderly parents if they have an anxious attachment style.

a.

Explanation:

The implication of communal relationships that Joshua should know is that children who take care of their elderly parents should do so only because their parents need help, not because they expect a benefit in return. Communal relationships such as a father with his children is about love and wanting the best for the other person. Parents take care of their children because they love them and want them to be safe and taken care of. The same applies to children who grow up to take care of their elderly parent, they do so because they love their parents for all the years that they have protected them and want to be there when they most need their children. Not everything is about economy or incentives.

an informal structure in a bureaucracy would be something like so-called "office politics". where there's a formal structure set up for the organization, but then an informal subculture as well that has a way of organizing the bureaucracy further. this can be positive because it sets up an added degree of organization, albeit informal, within the bureaucracy.
