Family life in UK

A ‘typical’ British family used to consist of mother, father and two children

One marriage in every three now ends in divorce

This means that there are a lot of one-parent families

people are living longer nowadays

there are many household which consist of only one person or one adult and children

people marry again, and they sometimes take responsibility for a second family

Members of a family keep in touch, but they see less of each other then they used to

There are about 10 million old-age pensioners in Britain, of whom about 750,000 cannot live entirely independently

Relationships within the family are different now

Parents treat their children and children have more freedom to make their own decisions

family holiday is still an important part of family life

many children have holidays away from their parents
