We have tended to believe that in the past children grew up in extended households including grandparents, parents, and children. However, recent historical research has thrown into doubt the idea that as countries became increasingly urban and industrial, the Western family developed from extended to nuclear. Historians have found evidence that households in pre-industrial Western Europe were already nuclear and they were not transformed by economic changes. Peter Laskett, one of the leading analysts of the pre-industrial family, argues that most households in the past were actually small. Thus, it is not likely that in the past few centuries many families in Europe ______________.
① were nuclear ones
② lived in rural areas
③ lived with their grandparents
④ developed their family values
