End of the traditional family in America: Less than HALF of children grow up in a home with a mother and a father, study reveals

> Less than half of U.S children under the age of 18 live at home with two married, heterosexual parents in their first marriage, new research has revealed.

> The figures reveal the ever-changing make-up of the family structure. In the 1960's, 73 per cent of children had what is considered a traditional family structure but by 1980 that figure had dropped to 61 per cent.

> Previously, couples married young before starting a family, and stayed together. However, the figures show American households are become more complex, and far less traditional.

> Americans are getting married later in life, or not at all. And the share of children born outside of marriage has jumped to 41 per cent, compared to just 5 per cent in 1960.
