This week in my family relations class we talked about the different trends affecting the family. These trends consist of:
-Waiting longer to marry
-Cohabitation rates have gone up
-Birth rates decrease
-Children born out of wedlock increase
-More employed mothers
-Household sizes decrease
-Divorce rates increase
-More people living alone
-Sex rates increase
I think that each of these trends is intertwined and connected with one another. They all play a role among the others, and each of these roles leads to diminishing family value. I believe that family is the most important thing in the world. There is nothing more important to me than family. Every trend on this list plays a role in lessening family values.
