Question

Reading
1. The family is a basic concept in America. Right from the beginning, people came
to live in the New World with a view to build their new lives and raise families. The
family is now protected by the American Law.
2. According to the recent survey, only 10 percent of American families live with
their children and grandchildren. At certain age people tend to break away and live
independently from their parents. But in cities, where there are a great variety of jobs,
young adults have an opportunity to stay where they grew up.
3. It all depends on the family. Women used to be disadvantaged. Even now some
employers would pay women less for the same work. But it is illegal and is becoming
less frequent. The women in America have fought hard and the social scene is
changing practically every year. No more are women assigned to the kitchen and
house work.
4. Again, it's their individual choice. Both husband and wife are money makers now
Meals, children and everything else is individual decision of a free person. Say, the
father may decide to babysit and to do cooking while the mother would clean the
house.
