WW11 had a negative effect on the "morality" or functioning of American famliles becuase it tore the parents from the home, but the war had a slightly good effect on the finances of some families (more jobs, etc.).
Women gained lots of employment opportunities from the war (with many men off fighting in the war) in defense plants and other places of work. This affected family life as well, which suffered (at least a little), because if women were working, they had less time to spend with their kids, or doing housework, etc. and the father of the household was most likely off to war, so the children often lacked a sense of parenthood and direction.
...I don't see how "the relationship between the races" relates to how WW11 affected family life so...
In 1944, the federal government passed the GI Bill of Rights to help veterans with education, training, and loans, which would have aided them and their families.
