Family Problems in Great Britain and Russia Many people think that happy families are those where the mother ran the house, and the father went out to work to bring back enough money for this ideal family to live on. The family - mother, father and three or four healthy children - would go out for an occasional treat. Roles were very clear for the parents and children. But an "ideal" British family has changed. Since the law made it easier to get a divorce, the number of divorces has increased. In fact one marriage in every three now ends in divorce. This means that there a lot of one-parent families. In the majority of one-parent families it is the mother who is the single parent. Employing a nanny or childminder to look after children during the day is very expensive. An alternative is a kindergarten. The divorced people often marry again and they create stepfamilies. These families are far more complex. There are new roles, such as remained absent parents, stepsiblings, half-siblings and step grandparents. Another problem has been caused by the fact that people are living longer nowadays, and many old people live alone after the death of their partners. There about 10 million old-age pensioners in Britain, most of them can't live entirely independently. The government gives financial help in the form of a pension but in the future it will be more and more difficult for the national economy to support the increasing number of elderly. Relationships within the family are different now. Many children are given more freedom when young; when they move away from home. People experiment with relationships before committing themselves to marriage. One might think that traditional family life in Britain is a thing of the past. The family nature keeps changing, but a great variety of family forms may lead to new families rather than to no families in British society. Any family policy must be realistic. There are many factors influencing the stability of families and marriages - material security, living conditions, state support, alcoholism etc. We must identify and focus on those that bend themselves to some sort of action. It would be realistic to concentrate on creating a system of privileges, benefits, improved living conditions, day-care, kindergartens and the like designed to promote the family. All families must be made to understand that they can no longer count on state aid expert in the most difficult and desperate situations.
