I just do not like the label "nuclear" family, lol. Traditional is something that describes it better. Having been a child of the 60's, Nuclear also meant gross materialism and non traditional trends. The sins of suburbia is what drove a lot of youth into disrespecting their elders and turning away from them, as so much hypocrisy existed. People stopped going to church, upward mobility replaced reverence and the church as a social gathering and support system. I speak for myself, of course. In my youth, I longed to live the Pioneer way of life, hard work, self sustaining, a loving family and community. I would have become Amish except that seemed a little too extreme, but I was attracted to the humble living and devotion to scripture.
