I have a question related to this and to census. There are events for husband and events for wife but is there any way to list shared events like vacations, foster children, census.... where all the members of the family were involved or events where husband and wife were involved? It is tedious to add the same event to every single person's file in the family and then it prints out ten times....??

Sorry - writing from memory and there may be a couple of other things so read each screen carefully and then check a book report and see whether it reads OK. You also need to right click on the foster child when he's in Family View as a child and go into Children's Settings. There you can set Parent Child relationships and Child status. You then need to choose to include these on Reports.
