many countries, in the world, the family is changing. A generation or two ago,
the traditional family, in which the father was boss, was customary. Now, the
modern family, in which both the father and the mother are equal partners, is
more common. Although there are several similarities between the traditional
and the modern family, there are also some very important differences. The
traditional husband was the head of the household because he was the only one
who worked outside the home. If the wife worked for pay, then the husband was
not considered to be a good provider. In many families today, both husband and
wife work for pay. Therefore, they share the head of household.
