The Typical Modern Family
The modern ‘model’ family of television advertising is a husband, a wife and
two children. There are several reasons why this is now the typical family:
1. People can regulate the size of their family easily if they wish.
2. The size of available housing (modern homes are on average larger than the
average of a century ago, but people no longer expect to share bedrooms)
3. Many women wish to continue in employment
4. As the school- leaving age rises children cannot be sent out to work early to
add to the family income.

things as living space and holidays

is no one available to ‘baby-sit’ and generally help out.
