Postmodernism and family diversity
  1. Cheal argues that we no longer live in the 'modern' world, with its predictable structures (e.g. nuclear family)
    1. Society has entered a new, chaotic postmodern stage
      1. Family structure is fragmented; individuals have much more choice in their lifestyles, personal relationships and family arrangements
    2. In today's society, no dominant family type
      1. Greater diversity and choice
        1. Gives individuals more freedom over life choices
          1. Greater freedom means greater risk of instability (relationship breakdown)
