How do these trends effect you?

You might ask yourself  "What's going on in the world today?"  Well I will tell you.  Do you know how I know?  I'll tell you that too.  In our Family Relations class we talked about the trends happening in relationships today. There were nine areas covered in the Marriage and Family: The Quest for Intimacy textbook by Robert H. and Jeanette C. Lauer.  Categories: 1. Premarital Sex, 2. Births to Unmarried Women, 3. Living Alone, 4. Cohabitation, 5. Delayed Marriage, 6. Birth Rates, 7. Household Size, 8. Employed Mothers, and 9. Divorce.

Pretty much for the most part the world is going downhill when it comes to the whole family thing.  That's what's happening in the world.   I think each and every child is entitled to a good and safe home with a loving mother and a loving father.  There is no reason good enough  to deny a child that.

If you would like anymore information about what the book had to say or my opinion on any of these leave a comment.
