Answer 1

The statement "Parents who are active outside the home have the most trouble dealing with empty nest" is not accurate. Research suggests that parents who are actively engaged in activities outside the home, such as work or hobbies, may find it easier to cope with the empty nest syndrome as they have other sources of fulfillment and purpose in their lives.
