Major topics include: youth employment; public spending on children and their families; effects of unreported income on US families; economic conditions and family life; and a 55-year assessment (1940-95) of the effects of demographic factors on family life of children. A special session on some of the implications for policy and research is reported. Much of the data is illustrated in tabular or chart form. A summary of discussion from conference participants accompanies each paper. (wz).
