1. The theory best describes the trajectory of intact, two-parent, middle class, heterosexual, lifelong couples and their children. 2. The theory does not account for different family forms associated with divorce, death of a spouse, remarriage, childless couples, or cohabiting or gay/lesbian couples. 3. The theory "normalized" one type of family and invalidated others. 4. The theory deemed parenthood to be a primary "organizer of the life course" to the exclusion of other family forms. 5. Many criticize the theory as being only descriptive and lacking explanatory power. The theory describes transitional tasks but does not explain how (i.e., by what process) they are successfully negotiated.
