<em><u>Further explanation</u></em><em>:</em>
- John Brown (1800-1859) was an abolitionist who supported armed struggle against existing laws and government in order to end slavery. In October 1859, Brown led a raid on the federal armory at Harpers Ferry, Virginia. The intent was to arm slaves to fight for their freedom and set in motion a slave revolt that would spread across other regions in the South. The effort was unsuccessful and Brown was hanged for treason against Virginia.
- President Lincoln delivered the Gettysburg Address on November 19, 1863. in the Gettysburg Address, Lincoln affirmed the principle stated by the Declaration of Independence, that all men are created equal. The massive number of casualties at the Battle of Gettysburg gave impetus to Lincoln's words about preserving the Union and government of the people, by the people and for the people -- ideas which had been central to Lincoln's worldview before Gettysburg as well as in that speech.
- Lee's surrender to General Ulysses Grant of the Union occurred on April 9, 1865, near the town of Appomattox Court House, Virginia. This was the effectively the end of the US Civil War.
- As pointed out by Daniel White in an article on <em>Owlcation </em>about advantages the South did have, one key was military leadership. White writes: "Many Southern political and military leaders were graduates of the military academy at West Point, as well as veterans of wars such as the Mexican-American War ... while the Union struggled for the first few years of the war to find strong leaders ."
- Harriet Beecher Stowe's novel, "Uncle Tom's Cabin," was hugely popular with abolitionists around the world. The book was the 2nd-best selling book of the 19th century -- coming in behind only the Bible (the perennial bestseller).
- As the History Channel reports, "Lincoln did believe that slavery was morally wrong, but there was one big problem: It was sanctioned by the highest law in the land, the Constitution." So Lincoln wrestled with the issue of slavery as a moral wrong, and yet something that had Constitutional approval.

Answer:
According to Annalisa Rossi Del Corso research on Intergenerational relationships (1990), <em>the flow of support between parents and children is reverting with aging of both groups</em>.
Explanation:
Meaning that when children are young, parents provide more support to them. Meanwhile, when parents become older children start to provide support to their parents, and support coming from parents is decreasing. As a result of this process, parents turn from givers to receivers.
In the beginning of Intergenerational relationships, parents are 100% givers and children are 100% receivers. When children grow up, the <u>ratio between support received and support given changes</u>. For example, at the age of 25 child receives 60% of support from parents and provides 40% of support back.
