  b. In families where there the traditional form remained in place, the sense of family support actually worsened over time.
  c. The feeling of family support over time did not seem to matter if gthe family was divorced, stayed together, or consisted to dual-earners or single-earners.
  d. The feeling of family support was much stronger among families where both parents worked and earned a living.

Question 2

  b. A majority of the respondents whose parents did stay together wished that they had not.
  c. Even when divorced parents got back on their feet and were happy, about half of the respondents still felt negative about their parents split-up.
  d. These respondents practically unanimously felt that their parents did not have enough money to raise them in a style in which they were accustomed.
