Who cares if the family institution is changing, Mikey? Like governments, technology, social norms and cultures in general, rules of marriage change based on the expectations of generations that move through different cultural eras. The 4-8 kid family that was once prevalent is now an exception to the rule in the Western world. Also, same sex marriages are becoming more commonplace as society gradually accepts homosexuality.
Does the preference for the nuclear family too also mean no mixed racial breeding? And what about religious preferences? I'd like to hear your side on this.
The traditional family institution is disappearing. I'm actually in support of this for more modern alternatives that give people more freedom to do what they want. I would think that should be something you would support given your views.
