Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

Three reasons cited are 1. the economic boom of the late 1990s and early 21st century, which allowed more families to survive on one income; 2. the influence of a growing Hispanic population that favors traditional families, and 3. a generation of adults who were raised as latchkey children and want a stay-at-home parent for their children.
