In the early days of America, the family held together for economic reasons. Father, mother and children all worked together to build the pioneer family or family business. But today, about one out of three marriages ends in divorce, and more and more of them involve children. The divorce rate in America is still the highest in the world, but 75% of the women and 83% of the men who divorce remarry within 3 years. The children from the broken families join up to produce a new kind of unit called the blended family. But 18 million children are now living with their stepbrothers and stepsisters in such an arrangement.
Perhaps the most significant trend today is toward the single-parent household. Of all children under 18, 17% are now living with only one parent. More divorced men feel that they are capable of bringing up their children and are fighting for custody rights. John Wilcox, who has recently won custody of his two little girls, believes he's doing a good job in raising his kids in spite of the rising cost of it.
Business and government officials are looking for new ways to help parents meet their family responsibilities as well as to increase their income. One of them is to increase government support for nationwide day-care centers which allow single parents to find full-time jobs. Clearly enough, this hardly seems enough.

About friendship
Section B
We often say, “A friend in need is a friend indeed.” But what is the exact meaning of friendship? No one can really offer a definite concept, because different people hold various views on friendship.
Everyone has his own friendship and some have a lot of friends.But in fact, quantity is not so important as quality.Loyalty is the most important for friendship.No one wants to make friends with those who will betray them.
No matter whether you are married or not, no matter where you live and work, your friends are your friends.It is not based on bloodline.It relies on your intention.To you, some friends are fun-loving, some give encouragement, some offer knowledge, and others help you to find your own identity.Before your friends, you may act as a supervisor, a learned brother, a lovely child, a gentleman or a playmate.In a word, friendship helps you to be a full person.So friendship can benefit.
