This image depicts a lone-parent family because you can see the mother in the middle with her children around her, with no other adult in sight. This shows that she is taking care of the children on her own and that they are dependant on her. She has no one else helping her raise her children, she raises them on her own. ]]> 2019-02-22 13:38:20 UTC https://padlet.com/maggie_couvillon/sbxukl8qgxqg/wish/334116342 maggie_couvillon https://padlet.com/maggie_couvillon/sbxukl8qgxqg/wish/334118657 Many different events throughout the years have changed Canadian families. For example:
-Education has changed families because it is expensive and if a family is more educated, they will get a better job and make more money.
-In 1960 when Birth Control came out it limited how much children were born each year, which affected how big families were.
-Media has affected families recently, mentally and socially, because families are being less social with each other and instead are on their phones, and a lot of children are having self-esteem issues because of social media. 
-Jobs affect families now because in most families, both parents have jobs. Before, women often stayed home and took care of the house and children but now since both are working, children get less time with the parents and are alone more often. 
-Now that people can get divorced, it has changed families because spouses can get seperated which can affect children.

-Education has caused families to be more in debt and to have better degrees.
-Birth Control has caused less child to be born each year, which is helping with overpopulation and also helping younger women experience with ex without having to have any bad consequences. This has helped make sex less of a sin and more of a common thing. 
-Media has GREATLY affected families. Because of social media, spouses have become less close to each other since they are distracted by their phones. Children also have become more self conscious because of apps that they go on, and the comments that they get online. 
-Now that both parents work, It can cause the couple to see each other less, which will affect their relationship, and it also can affect how much the children see their parents which could also affect their relationship. 
-Divorce has caused families to be 'broken' in a sense because once a couple gets divorced the children often get only a week with each of them, which can affect their mental health. ]]> 2019-02-22 13:55:09 UTC https://padlet.com/maggie_couvillon/sbxukl8qgxqg/wish/334123525 maggie_couvillon https://padlet.com/maggie_couvillon/sbxukl8qgxqg/wish/334128225 -Fewer households are composed of a classic 'mom, dad and kids' family. 
-More people are living alone, as part of a couple without children, or as part of a multigenerational family.
- In 1871, there were on average 5.6 people per household, now it has dropped to 2.4 by 2016. This shows that less and less people are having children and living together.
-There were 14.1 million private households in Canada in 2016, 9.5 million (67.7%) of which were composed of at least one census family. 
-One-person households accounted for 28.2% of all households in 2016, which is the highest it has been since 1867.
-Married couples represented the majority of couples. In 2016, over one-fifth of all couples (21.3%) were living common law, more than three times the share in 1981 (6.3%).
-The highest proportions of common-law unions were in Nunavut and Quebec.
-In 2016, the proportion of multigenerational households was only 2.9%, however, from 2001 to 2016, multigenerational households rose the fastest (+37.5%) of all household types.

Ross has already been married twice, and has a child (Ben) from one of those previous marriages. After their baby (Emma) is born and they start raising her together, they begin to date again and have their own little blended family. They raise their own child and Ross' child together, and they both have been divorced at least once. ]]> 2019-02-22 14:18:08 UTC https://padlet.com/maggie_couvillon/sbxukl8qgxqg/wish/334134792 maggie_couvillon https://padlet.com/maggie_couvillon/sbxukl8qgxqg/wish/334143706 In my opinion, I believe that Canadian families are worse today than they were in the past. While women have more rights and can get their own job, it has often lead to the children being left more alone and not seeing their parents as much, because they are both at work. They often get less attention or help now than they did in the past. Social media has also affected how families run now, because again the family is spending less time with each other and instead are on their phones. Back in the olden days families did more together and children got more attention by their parents, which I believe is very important. Nowadays our society and families are falling apart, with more people getting divorced or breaking up, which is why I think that families are worse now than they were in the past. ]]> 2019-02-22 14:34:23 UTC https://padlet.com/maggie_couvillon/sbxukl8qgxqg/wish/334143706
