Answer to Question 1

In the 1970s, families had lower birth rates and higher divorce rates compared with the 1950s and 1960s, and larger numbers of women entered colleges and graduate schools. In the 1980s, more people over age 25 postponed marriage, and many who were already married delayed having children. Out-of-wedlock births, especially among teenage girls, declined in the late 1990s, began to climb in 2006, and the number of one-parent households increased dramatically.The number of two-income families burgeoned, along with the number of adult children who continued to live at home with their parents because of financial difficulties.

Answer to Question 2

TRUE
