I haven’t seen that data, and it is a fair point. Still, I would argue that at least part of that shift is a result of changes in employability. When my parents were in school, a college degree was not yet considered a pre-requisite for so many people who are entering the work force. In fact, neither of my parents had a degree, yet we were able to live comfortably on just my father’s income. And for those who still carry that view, the situation is much worse today than it was then.
