Why have families changed so much and are these changes linked with societal breakdowns?

While I agree that ideally families be made up fo 2 parents and children all committed and in love and care the term "liberalistaion of family values" appears to blame the victims so to speak - as in not all family break-ups are due to lack of committment. Children are better of brought up by one parent than in an abusive relationship. Abuse is not always physical, life can be made miserable by through many means which are abusive of an individuals well being. Children require a loving environment and sometimes this is better provided by one parent.
Unfortunately families now do not have the benefit of the extended family support due to work committments and workplaces not valueing families.
