Part 2/13:

Hollywood and corporate America have long been criticized for promoting nihilism and a consumerist, individualistic lifestyle that often sidelines family values. The trope of the "dual income no kids" (DINKs) lifestyle is deeply embedded in media, showcasing careers and personal pleasures over family commitments. This trend is reinforced by the entertainment industry's cultural products—movies, music, and television—that tend to glamorize self-indulgence and independence while subtly marginalizing the significance of raising children.
