All families change over time. Some become more stable over the years, while others tend to go downhill and lose the sense of support they give their children. A surprising finding of Gerson's study was that
 
  a. In families where there was a marital break-up, the sense of family support actually got better over time.
  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

It has long been argued that it is best for the family to stay together for the good of the kids. How did the respondents in Gerson's study feel about this issue?
 
  a. Among those whose parents had broken up (or never married), a slight majority felt that they wished they had stayed together.
  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.
