The notion of the traditional family as a stay-at-home mom and working father was only prevalent during a particular time in U.S. history (1950s) and does not define America's history as a whole. It is not accurate to say that it was the dominant family for Americans of all races and classes until recently, as there have always been various family structures throughout history. The phrase "traditional family" is also a vague and subjective term that can be interpreted differently by different people. Therefore, option A is the most accurate statement.
