The Decline of the Family & The Solution


The decline of the family is related to industrialization, a mobile society, and the inability of a family to make it on one income. I bemoan the loss of traditional families. Extended families with aunts, uncles, and grandparents are even better for kids. The community or "Village" can share child care and take some of the burden off parents. This disturbing clip shows how far we have moved away from the ideal, but offers hope.
