Answer to Question 1

Family income strongly influences family function by the extent to which family needs
may be met. The family stress model predicts that low-income families may
experience stress contributed not only by economic hardship but also by the parents'
reaction to that hardship. High income may also create stress in that parents
spending time working to make more money spend less time with their children,
resulting in troubled behavior such as emotional problems, drug abuse, and
delinquency.

Answer to Question 2

The main criticisms presented by the text are that (1) the theory is too narrow and
restrictive, because of its focus on reasoning; (2) it only reflects liberal Western
values; and (3) it overlooks male-female differences. Students' opinions on these criticisms will vary, but students should be able to show that they understand
Kohlberg's theory and its critics.
