Mental health greatly affects our health. For example, compared to the situation that the person who live alone eats alone, it would have more bad influence to our health that is a case the person who live with family eat a meal alone. We have one hypothesis that people who have some relationships with different ages have resilience. Then we investigate the frequency of multi-generational exchanges and the mental effects by it. Also, we make a measure for the evaluation and verify its reliability. Based on these tests, we will show how important having many relationships with some ages.
