Do you have any resources? I believe this is a huge factor in our societies deconstruction. But who were the advocates, and what where their actions?

It's a natural result of how wealthy we were in the 1950s and 1960s. Kid gets a job fresh out of high school. Dad tells him to turn that radio down. Kid says, "Fuck you dad, I'll go get my own house, with black jack and hookers!" And he does, because he can buy the home outright with only four years of work with just a high school degree. 1970s were the turning point, and we've been in decline ever since.

It was how Americans settled the west also, two or three families would pick a spot new a river and have 10 kids each. It's a natural tendency for women to never stray far from their parents also.

Poster already told us who was the author of this plot: da Joos. No question but that the extended family has largely disappeared at the community level. One huge factor in this societal change has been the incredible growth of air travel.
