This paper examines the relationship between family career and age cohort. The family career concept originates in the work of developmental theorists such as Rodgers (1973). It is argued that the concept of the family career represents a more sophisticated approach and understanding of developmental theory than does the use of the present stage of the life cycle. The results of this research suggest that age cohort has little effect on the pattern of stages in the family career but that age cohort is moderately associated with the timing or spacing between stages
