[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The traditional 2 parent family with mom and dad married, with no kids from previous relationships is no longer the norm That has not been the norm for a long time Ww1 wiped out numerous fathers, as did ww2 In the 60s people started to believe this could be the golden standard Life has changed with the times and so has the definition of family and even standards for poverty [/quote] 100% the norm among UC and UMC. Coincidence?[/quote] Not really. Divorce rate for UC and UMC is around 30 percent now. Lower than the norm but it's still very common. We live in a wealthy area of Moco and the rate of people on their second (or third!) marriages or who are divorced is about 20-30%. And if you look around and think that's not the norm, it's because you have young kids. Wait until they go off to college![/quote] Obesity is now the norm, but that doesn't mean it's a good thing.[/quote]
