520 _a"Deeply ingrained in the American psyche is an image of the ideal family. It consists of the original mom and dad and two well-behaved, if slightly mischievous children. That image was idealized in the 1950s with shows like 'Leave it to Beaver' and 'Father Knows Best.' As a culture, we came to desire that traditional family and to believe it was 'normal.' " (CONSCIOUS CHOICE) This article, which reveals that "the nuclear family reached its peak in the fifties," describes modern family life, which is comprised of "a diverse mix of single-parent households, remarried families, nuclear families, unmarried couples, and couples without children.".
