1. What does sociologist Andrew Cherlin mean when he contends that Americans (in comparison to people in other places) are on “a marriage-go-round that’s spinning faster and faster out of control”?

If you think we could return to the 1950s model, how would we do it and enforce it? If you don’t think we could return to the 1950s model, why not?
