[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]America was much better when most children were raised in functional nuclear families. [/quote] Please define “functional “. Defining “better” would be great, too, but let’s start with “functional”. Quite a lot of what used to look functional on the surface involved alcohol, cigarettes, what now would be viewed as abusive behavior, and laws and social conventions that made it extremely difficult for women to leave highly problematic marriages. So many biographies from children who survived supposedly “functional nuclear families” — and those are just the stories that got published. [/quote] You’ve made important points. Those families weren’t perfect, yet their children became adults who could read and write. [/quote] +1. And spend a lot of time in therapy — Gen X[/quote] Please cite a source for your contention. Otherwise I can just as easily counter that Gen X kids from single parent families are in therapy just as much, if not more. Why do you think there has been rampant proliferation of online therapy?
