Family's in the past were based on a sexist foundation where the man made the money and the wife cooked, cleaned, and took care of the children. NOw with our society we are seeing these roles changes wether it be that you have a LGBTQ family with two fathers or two mothers or other diverstys. Those roles are very uncomon now. Most of the time its both parents going to work and the children stay with a daycare or such

Family's in the past usually was seen as a nuclear family, with the dad as working, and the mom as staying home.

However, in today's society, most family's are not nuclear families, either with LGBTQ+ families or, as more common, single-parent families. There is very little healthy relationship within these types of families, the single-parent family being hard, while the LGBTQ+ family being destructive.
