This analysis explores the concept of deviance in relation to societal norms, particularly focusing on family structures. The traditional notion of the "normal" family, comprising two parents (male and female) and their children, is examined against the backdrop of changing societal expectations. The rise in teenage pregnancy is contextualized within historical norms, highlighting how shifts in women's roles, increased female employment, and the escalating costs of raising children have altered family formation patterns. Understanding these dynamics is crucial for addressing contemporary social policies.
