What will be an ideal response?
Before World War II, most mothers stayed at home to take care of the children and other domestic chores, and most fathers earned the money to support the family. Also, the vast majority of parents were married. The few single-parent families that existed happened mostly because of divorce. When a family needed help to take care of their children, they usually relied on their extended family, including grandparents, aunts, and uncles. Today, both parents of most families work, partly to pay expenses and partly to achieve career fulfillment. Although many parents still marry, there are many more parents who choose not to marry. Also, there are more single-parent families, most of which are headed by the mother. If parents need help to take care of their children, they rely much less on extended family and much more on early child care.
