Answer to Question 1

The laissez-faire relationship is where both partners have total freedom of choice and action; the democratic relationship is where responsibility is shared and authority is delegated by an equitable agreement; and an autocratic relationship is where both partners may have responsibilities but authority is assigned to a single leader.

Answer to Question 2

Career-oriented spouses usually put their career ahead of the family. They would be much more likely to bring work home; the problems of work can cause difficulty at home or vice versa. Family members often see this behavior as a lack of commitment to the family.
