Abstract

[eng] 22% of the families have 40% of the children - Large families, and particularly extremely large families, are becoming rare. In 1982, 22% of all families had three children or more, and 3% at least five. Nearly two thirds of the latter could be found among the working classes, and more than a third were families of immigrants. The standard of living of a large family is half that of a family with one child. The modest income of large . lies is due to the social environment, but also to the fact that the mothers of these families very seldom work. A new type of large family is developping: a family reconstituted by the union of two persons who had children from a previous union. They are slightly different from the first kind, and for instance, the women of these families are more likely to work.

Una nueva forma de familia numerosa se desarrolla: las familias "recompuestas" por la union de dos personas con hijos de un matrimonio anterior. Son un poco distintas de las precedentes, en especial las mujeres que son más activas, con mayor frecuencia. [fre] Familles nombreuses : 22 % des familles, 40 .
