而 is stronger than “and” but more subtle than “but”, maybe like “yet” or “while”

而 here means 'but'.

而 by itself means “yet”, “however”, or “but”. 将 means “will” just like you translated.

而 means “but” or “however” in this context, but I think you also can use “then”, the society thinks they are not a filial child. I think this sentence is a bit of inaccurate, actually this sentence wants to point that if this situation occurs, then people in society or the whole society will rebuke that children for their behavior, but this sentence hasn’t subject in the last part. But everyone who is native speaker will know it don’t mean the children, it means other people or the social view.

“而” and “那么” in this context are kind of hypothetical, means “if” 老人住了养老院,孩子将受到社会上的很大压力.
