Global Understanding. Culture and Family Values

Далее будет идти ряд заметок на английском, которые повествуют о некоторых событиях, традициями, тенденциях в Америке. Исключительно мое мнение после прочтения статей, никому ненавязываемое. За ошибки заранее извините... Учусь, исправляюсь...


What is family? Each of other has own notion of this conception.
Americans used to view their immediate family like a breadwinner father, a homemaker mother, and two children. But modern economy and social situation change traditional mention about family.
A small percentage of American households consist of stay-at-home mother. Nowadays both of parents have a full-time job. Only about one-quarter of households consist of two parents and their children. The majority of marital couples live without children. And with it, a large amount of Americans prefer unrelated living together or should single upbringing their children.
In this time the birth rate are very low in America. Due to poor economy and high cost of child upbringing women choose not to have family.
Women pregnant the first time more often in the 35-to-39 and 40-to-44 age brackets, and about 40% of babies, are born by young women, may not have been planned.
Another problem of families is role reversal. Statistic counts about 32% stay-at-home dads. Due to this some problems appear in their life like cooking, cleaning the house, giving care for children, misunderstanding the other fathers with full-time job, lack of interaction with other adults and etc.
Their wives have a mixture of feelings too about that role reversal that include relief, guilt, envy, happiness, frustration, regret, sadness, and thankfulness.
This misunderstanding goes to problems between spouses, therefore they should have close communication between each other. And they should encourage each other: wives could enable husbands to feel him the provider, and husbands could enable wives to be a nurturing mother and weak women.
