We generally view the family as being one of our most stable institutions: yet, our family system has undergone a number of changes in the past. Two hundred years ago, marriages were often arranged by parents, with economic considerations being the most important determinant of who married whom. Two hundred years ago, divorce was rare: now, more than one out of three marriages end in divorce. Two hundred years ago, women did not work out of the home, and children were an economic asset: now nearly 50 percent of married women work outside the home, and children are a financial liability(责任).
In our fast-paced society, the family is now changing even more rapidly than it did in the past.
In viewing the future of the American family, some authorities foresee the family as facing toward extinction. They say that the family is dead except for the first year or two of child raising, and this will be its only function.
Family optimists, on the other hand, predict the family is entering a Golden Age—an area where the members will have more leisure time to spend with each other and will derive considerable enjoyment from family-type activities. Most sociologists, however, do not agree with either the pessimists or the optimists: instead, they argue that the family is experimenting with a number of novel types and forms, many of which will probably be discarded, but some likely to be found satisfying and functional and gradually becoming "typical".
The author describes the changes of the family ______.
