Summary Introduction

Introduction

The family structure has drastically changed throughout the twenty-first century. The “traditional” family unit made up of two parents that identify as a man and woman giving birth to, and raising, their own biological children has become less and less common. Family units today constitute a variety of different structures including single parents, adoption, step families, grandparents raising their grandchildren, and same-sex parents, to name a few.
