natali 33 [55]

Answer:

As a general rule, when driving in the city, select a travel lane with the least amount of congestion and stay in the lane you have chosen until you need to turn, pass another vehicle, or avoid a hazard.

Explanation:

Many roads contain 2 or more lanes that go in the same direction. When driving on these roads, people who are traveling at low speed should stay in the right lane, allowing others to do it at a higher speed. The lane in which you will drive your vehicle depends on your speed and the factors mentioned above.

What caused the dramatic changes to the American family? What are those changes?
Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

Family life is changing. Two-parent households are on the decline in the United States as divorce, remarriage and cohabitation are on the rise. And families are smaller now, both due to the growth of single-parent households and the drop in fertility. Not only are Americans having fewer children, but the circumstances surrounding parenthood have changed. While in the early 1960s babies typically arrived within a marriage, today fully four-in-ten births occur to women who are single or living with a non-marital partner. At the same time that family structures have transformed, so has the role of mothers in the workplace – and in the home. As more moms have entered the labor force, more have become breadwinners – in many cases, primary breadwinners – in their families.

As a result of these changes, there is no longer one dominant family form in the U.S. Parents today are raising their children against a backdrop of increasingly diverse and, for many, constantly evolving family forms. By contrast, in 1960, the height of the post-World War II baby boom, there was one dominant family form. At that time 73% of all children were living in a family with two married parents in their first marriage. By 1980, 61% of children were living in this type of family, and today less than half (46%) are. The declining share of children living in what is often deemed a “traditional” family has been largely supplanted by the rising shares of children living with single or cohabiting parents.
