Question 3

Correct Answer:

Verified

Traditionalists believe men should be responsible for earning income and women should be responsible for housework and childcare.This family type is most likely at the highest end and lowest end of the income distribution.Neo-traditionalists believe a wife should be able to work if she desires,but only if it doesn't interfere with her caretaking responsibilities.These families are usually economically secure,but not necessarily wealthy.Egalitarians prefer relationships in which both partners do their fair share of breadwinning,housekeeping,and child rearing.Young people in particular endorse this view.Dual-nurturers prioritize the second shift,and it often requires a level of financial security to be able to enact.
