Besides technology and social media making a major change in our lives, we have kids at best, both mom and dad working, and at worst single parents working two jobs and kids coming home to an empty house. Without adult supervision drugs easily can enter the picture. When we can home from school Mom was there and a couple hours later Dad came home from work we had what we called supper together. We didn’t have a lot of money but we had family. The family as we knew it is almost nonexistent. Over half of marriages end up in divorce. Divorce was frowned upon when we were growing up. Economically we have the haves and have nots with the middle class loosing ground to the upper income brackets. These are just a few things that are different. “In pursuit of higher profits at the cost of lower labor costs we may have lost the American dream.” Anonymous
