Last summer there was a media frenzy about a supposed war between greedy baby boomers who are sucking up the nation’s resources, and young adults, the millennials, doomed to a bleak financial future. “Are Millennials the Screwed Generation?” asked the Daily Beast, which never lets itself get bogged down by nuances.

A new study by the Pew Research Center suggests that not only is there no Boomer-Millennial war, but rather the two generations feel a duty to care for each other.

The vast majority of 18- to 29-year-olds polled — 84 percent — said adult children have a responsibility to provide financial assistance to an elderly parent if he or she needs it.

And 54 percent of the 50- to 64-year-olds said that parents have a responsibility to provide for their adult children.
