“ Taking on care roles and responsibilities that may be new or more focused than in previous times in their marriage provided the men an opportunity to support and spend more time with their wives and ultimately enhanced their appreciation of their relationship, ” says Karen Roberto, director of the Center for Gerontology at Virginia Tech, U.S.A.
” Karena memiliki peranan dan tanggung jawab baru untuk merawat teman hidup atau lebih memusatkan perhatian pada perkawinan, para pria berkesempatan untuk mendukung dan meluangkan lebih banyak waktu bersama istri, sehingga semakin menghargai hubungan mereka, ” kata Karen Roberto, kepala Pusat Gerontologi di Virginia Tech, AS.
