Father leaves for work in the morning after breakfast.The two children take the bus to school,and mother stays home cooking and cleaning until father and the kids return home in the evening. This is the traditional picture of a happy family living in Britain.But is it true today?
The answer is no! The past 20 years have seen enormous changes in the lives and structure of families in Britain.The biggest change has been caused by divorce, which leads to a situation where many children live with one parent and only see the other at weekends or holidays.
There has “so been a huge rise in the number of women with children who work. The large rise in divorces(离婚)has meant many women need to work to support themselves and their children. Even where there is no divorce,many families need both parents to work in order to survive. This has caused an increase in childcare facilities,though it is very expensive and can be difficult to find in many areas.
There has also been a sharp increase ____________ single mothers,particularly among teenagers.Some people have blamed this increase for the rise in crime.They feel the lack of a male role model has damaged these children in society.
However these changes have not had a totally negative effect.For women,it is now much easier to have a career and good salary.Children themselves grow up more independent and mature(成熟的) than in the past.
