Divorce
It can create stress and resentment which can lead to relationship breakdowns between adults and
children.
It will lead to changes being made for everyone but those changes will depend on each individual family
and their personal circumstances. More stress about paying the bills is bound to have a negative effect
on relationships.

Yes, my mum worked as well as my dad but it was unusual in the 70’s /80’s…….Men worked, women

Yes. The extended family used to live closerer and socialise more together. Today families are farther
from each other, often because of better employment oportunities.
Yes
No
Yes indeed. Hostorically women's roles were clearly defined as lowly, home makers, child rearers and
carers for elderly relatives. In the last 50 years women have gained rights to vote, higher education
leading to better jobs, and eventally, equal pay to men.

1970s was the " Love snd Peace" era and relationships were more free and family break ups became
more common. The welfare state however enabled families to get housing and benefits which could
have helped stability.. i don't think families have changed significantly since 1970s
Yes
No
I would have yo do a history degree to know that. In some eras women were highly rated, think of Helen
of Troy!

Families need 2 incomes to make ends meet and this means much less family time and divorce being
more accepted has led to Blended Families
There is poverty in nearly all nations but in western cultures, in particular UK couples can be better off
financially liv8ng apart as the benefit system helps single parents more than struggl8ng couples!
Both parents will have to work although childcare costs could put a question on that. Family days out
and other entertainment will be axed . The family structure coukd be altered in that the parent earning
the highest wage may have to work and this coukd be different from the one working at present..

Tony Blundell
Yes,I think the family as an entity has changed a lot since the 1970's.Roles within the family have
become much less delineated along gender lines,Men are far more likely now to at least take a share in
child rearing & care,cooking,cleaning,& most other tasks around the home that enable a well-functioning
family unit.Women are now far more likely to work,& have careers & interests outside the home
Yes
No
Traditionally over the last 200 years & before,women's sphere of influence was mostly centred around
home & hearth,whereas in the last 50 years,their opportunities to become involved in life in most areas
have become at least on a par with men.Women are no longer looked on as subservient to men,& have
the opportunity to compete on an equal footing with men in all areas of work,politics & opinions.
Right to divorce
Other:
Women realising that they no longer had to put up & shut up,& the gradual removal of barriers during
the last 50 years to their advancement
Not much

A lot
50 years?
Economics is a big factor-many families now need 2 incomes to achieve the standard of living that they
aspire to
Quite disruptive-poverty depresses family life & causes tensions which can upset or break otherwise
strong family groups
Again,quite a disruptive effect-lack of money & the increasing pressure to maintain basic standards
within the family group can only cause increasing distress,& will eventually lead to some family units
disintegrating if the crisis is prolonged
