This family life depicted in this documentary is very much different from family life in America today. In America family life has changed and now two-parent households are no more common. The rate of divorce, as well as remarriage, is increasing. Unmarried mothers have more babies as compared to the past. There is no a concept of a nuclear family in America. The size of the family has gone smaller and there are only fewer children in the American family.
Women role in the family has also changed. Now they do not spend all their life in rearing and upbringing children at home. Moreover, these women are now less dependent financially over their husbands and are now part of the labour force and share the economic burden of the family with their male counterparts. This has reduced the quality time that families used to spend together. This is due to the increased financial pressure due to the increased expenditures. They get tired and avoid spending time with the family.
In addition, the single parent families are now common in America and these are mostly seen headed by single mothers. These mothers had to bear all the pressures such as financial and emotional. They face more issues as compared to a nuclear family. Children in these families take the effect of a breakup of their parents and get emotionally disturbed with the single mother.
