The "American dream" is an idea that grew from TV programs, books, and stories about family life. The idea began in the 1950s, after World War Ⅱ. What was the "dream"?
As the first step, families bought or built a comfortable little home in the suburbs. This often meant a long commute to work. Many husbands road the train or drove two hours each day, but this was part of the dream.
The husband "wore the pants" in the family. He made the decisions because he went to work, he paid the bills, and be "put" food on the table. Of course, his wife actually cooked the meals!
The wife spent her time at home. She took care of the children and kept house. Occasionally she found time for a hobby.
According to the dream, everyone was happy with this arrangement. This was the image that people held of the "perfect family." If the husband or wife felt bored or discontented, he or she hid these feelings.
