Problem: Dual Earner Families
Think critically and write how institutions such as schools or workplaces can adapt to the needs of the increasingly common dual-earner family. For example, providing after-school daycare that includes homework clubs to ensure homework is done, could free up evening hours to be family time.
a) Explain what you would like to see and why this would benefit a dual-earner family (back this up with textbook info and/or empirical research).
b) Do you have an example of a successful program from your own community? What issues do you think they seek to resolve for families?
c) How does the ongoing pandemic or overall cultural climate of our world affect this topic?
