Childless Family
The childless family is sometimes the "forgotten
family," as it does not meet the traditional
standards set by society. Childless families
consist of a husband and wife living and working
together. Many childless families take on the
responsibility of pet ownership or have extensive
contact with their nieces and nephews as a
substitute for having their own children.
Stepfamily
Stepfamily which involves two separate families
merging into one new unit. It consists of a new
husband and wife and their children from
previous marriages or relationships.
Stepfamilies are about as common as the
nuclear family, although they tend to have more
problems, such as adjustment periods and
discipline issues.
