Read the passage below and determine which combination of the given statements can be correctly inferred from the text. Passage: Assisting young adults through the initial financial pressures of establishing a home is merely the starting point of parental long-term support. Significantly more so than fathers, it is mothers who frequently sacrifice their own career progression to provide emergency financial buffers for their grown children, often resulting in their own retirement savings being heavily depleted and a reduction in long-term fiscal security. Yet, extending substantial financial assistance does not automatically guarantee stronger interpersonal relationships within the family unit. Statements: 1. Adult children share a deeper emotional intimacy with their mothers than they do with their fathers. 2. Financial dependence inherently acts as a stabilizing force that unifies families. 3. For parents, providing deep material support to their offspring can carry significant personal risks.

Statement 1 cannot be inferred. The passage mentions that mothers sacrifice their career progression more than fathers do. However, it provides absolutely no data or metrics regarding the emotional intimacy or affection shared between the children and either parent. Assuming emotional closeness based purely on financial sacrifice is an unsupported logical leap. Statement 2 cannot be inferred. The passage explicitly cautions against this exact sentiment, stating that extending substantial help "does not automatically guarantee stronger interpersonal relationships." Believing it acts as a guaranteed stabilizing force directly contradicts the nuanced warning in the text. Statement 3 can be inferred. The text explicitly notes that covering these gaps can result in the mothers' "retirement savings being heavily depleted and a reduction in long-term fiscal security." This directly substantiates the claim that lending a hand can carry significant personal and financial drawbacks or risks for the parents.
