I vote for this suggestion. As Natasha says, the English usually refers to a long-term trend in society. However, depending on the context, it could also refer to a specific family. We can't give a definitive translation without context.

Evelio, "breakdown" generally indicates a perceived widespread social breakdown of the family. In other words, it usually would not be used to refer just to one family's particular situation. Does "separación" carry a similar connotation'
