Answer to Question 1

While a majority of American households took this form for much of the 1950s, many did not. Working-class and minority communities, in particular, were more likely to find the middle-class ideal of the traditional family either out of reach or unappealing. Equally important, many husbands and wives who lived in these traditional households found them unnecessarily stifling.
