I am in a garbage sociology problems class in college. I have to pick a social problem and dissect it. I chose to go with the degradation of the nuclear family. This article is one of my sources. It's all garbage. I am almost willing to give up my 4.0 GPA because of this garbage class. The teacher is lazy as shit. Fucking typical liberal.

I would say reading the atlantic was a mistake...

Interesting article....then we get down to, it takes a village.

This article pointed out the problems in extended family vs nuclear vs single quite well I thought, also the benefits and strengths in those family structures.

What the writer does not point out in a significant way is honor, commitment, and the ability to make good decisions in a partner you will have children with. It should be head and heart.

Two parent families are critical for children and so are mature, healthy, honorable and committed adults as their parents. Many of us have made mistakes in these areas, but.looking back we know the cost was/is high for those mistakes.

God help us to be better in all things and to see things as You see them.

Actually, the "nuclear family" has been what's held up [their] progress in bringing about the 1984/Brave New World plans.

Boring. Though it seems to be saying we need to get back to enslaving people and incorporating them into our families? Interesting proposal.

Toe that Marxist party line.

What about the bird species who are monogamous and feed their own chicks?

I guess the bird overlords should build big nests for chick care and all the adults will keep beating their wings to feed them . . .

A mistake in that the nuclear family created millions upon millions of people who believed in idealized American values, and that those millions are now viewed as an impediment to realizing a complete, centralized elite dictatorship, then yes, a "mistake."
