Two Classes, Divided by "I Do"

The article "Two Classes, Divided by "I Do" is focused on the "American Dream" in way of being married therefore being able to provide for one's family and live comfortable. Yet, it focuses on the single adulthood raising a family and having the single adult do everything they can for their family.  In the article the women mentioned: Ms. Schairer makes an effort to be involved with kids at school and at home but she wished she had an extra person around. I believe some people may take that for granted not realize how much work it is o provide. When I compare this article to The Glass Castle it completely contradicts what this article is saying simple because the Rosemary and Rex Welch were not well off and is living in poverty and are dirt poor.  But, the difference is they chose to live that way when in fact they both could have got a well paying job to support their family and it sucked for the kids who wanted a better life.
