問題詳情

The American family is changing very quickly, right in front of our eyes, and these changes areoften controversial for many people.One of the most important changes researchers have discovered in the last fifty years or so is thatfewer Americans are married. According to research from Washington D.C., from 1960 to 2008, thepercentage of married adults in America has declined from 72% to 52%.One reason for this decline might be because there is an increase in the different types offamilies. A traditional American family, or nuclear family, consists of a mother, a father, and one or twochildren. However, nowadays, there can be many kinds of people raising children, such as single parents,grandparents, and even homosexual parents.While many Americans have no problem with single parent families as long as the parent hasenough time and money to raise a child, others think that children still need two parents in order to havea normal childhood. An even more controversial topic is homosexual families, or gay families. On theone hand, some believe that children need both a mother and a father. On the other hand, others think thatit doesn’t matter if a child has two fathers or two mothers, as long as the parents love their children.The fact is that American families are changing rapidly. As these new American families appear, wewill also surely see changes in the way people feel about them, good or bad.
