Refer to the scenario below to answer the following question(s).
The Attic Trunk opened in 1999 as an upscale dress shop in Forest Ridge's fashionable shopping district, catering to a wealthy, mature clientele consisting mostly of older, first-generation Hispanics. Many other specialty shops lined the main avenue over the next few years. But as Forest Ridge began to attract a more price-conscious, younger, and more demographically diverse population, the once-popular shopping district was increasingly perceived as stodgy and snobby by the new segment of customers.
By the mid-2000s, many of these specialty shops suffered financially. Most shops attracted only tourists who enjoyed browsing through the displays of alligator belts and shoes, piles of scented soaps, and so on, often laughing at the ridiculously high prices.
Owners of The Attic Trunk had noticed the shifts in buying behavior of customers by the mid-2000s. In fact, the owners had observed that the once-fashionable shopping district in Forest Ridge no longer attracted the wealthy, mature clientele. This clientele had been replaced with price-conscious families with children, a mix of Asian and African Americans as well as Caucasians.
Specialty items at The Attic Trunk gradually disappeared, replaced by brand-name apparel, fashion accessories, and jewelry. Other owners followed suit in the late 2000s, bringing restaurants, an outdoor cafe, and a day spa to the main avenue in Forest Ridge.
-Many families with children are now attracted to the shopping district in Forest Ridge. What characteristics about families as consumer groups might the owners of The Attic Trunk want to keep in mind?
A) Though more women hold jobs outside the home today than when The Attic Trunk first opened, husband-wife involvement in the buying process has remained relatively unchanged.
B) Children have considerable amounts of disposable income and have a strong influence on family buying decisions.
C) Women seldom account for any technology-related purchases.
D) Women typically account for most habitual purchases.
E) Men make all the major purchasing decisions in most families.
