In North America, about 90 percent of adults marry, and the great majority of them have children and thus a family life cycle related to family experiences. When the family's first child is born, the parents embark on a sequence of experiences linked to the child's development--from infancy and toddlerhood, through school age and adolescence, and eventually, to departure from the nest. Each of these periods in the child's life makes a different set of demands on the parents.
