The Family Today

        The families in the United States have many kinds of  families such as two career families , single parent families and step families.The families in the United States has changed significantly ,but in Saudi Arabia the families has changed gradually.First the two career families in the United States has increase in the number of married women who work outside the home from 32 percent in 1960 to 62 percent in 1998.But is my country Saudi Arabia the number of the two career families has increased but still it is a small number,because many people or men they don't allow for their wives to work they like for them to stay at home and take care of there children.The second type of families that I read was the single parents families we have the same type of families, but there is a small different that in the United States they can have children without they get married,but in my country we only have a single parent families after they get devours.The last thing that I have learned was the step families it was a new thing that i know because in my country we don't have this type of families.In conclusion I thin that we have some similar kinds of families but in a different situation.
