How the makeup of US households have changed 1960 vs today

(by @VisualCapitalist)

@infobeautiful good, tbh. Pretty much everyone I know was neglected as a child, because one or two adults are rarely enough to take care of one child, let alone as many as our parents were having. What isn't going to be shown in the graph* is a lot of us who don't "have" kids, biologically or legally, but still put in the effort to take care of the kids in our lives. I hope this and polyamory can lead to kids who actually get their needs met and grow up into well-adjusted and kind adults
@infobeautiful *with the exception of those who actually live with the kids. A former household of mine would've been included in the "other" category
