Answer 1

Answer:

a. family decline perspective

Explanation:

The family norms and ethos are on the decline in America where number of children out of marriage is increasing. Though men and women are in sexual relationships they are not interested in taking on the responsibility of rearing kids. There is a lack of social commitment, and its place, men and women are preferring short-term relations. Living relationship has replaced marital bliss, a clear sign of family decline.
