Question

I.Read the passage given-below and answer the questions that follow:
The culture of nuclear families is in fashion. Parents are often heard
complaining about the difficulties in bringing up children these days. Too
much of freedom in demand, too much independence; overnight parties;
excessive extravagance, splurging pocket money; no time for studies and
family all this is a common cry of such families. Aren’t parents, themselves,
responsible for this pitiful state? The basic need of a growing youth is the
family, love, attention and bonding along with moral values. One should not
forget that ‘charity begins at home’.
Independence and individuality both need to be respected, in order to
maintain the sanctity of family. Children today are to be handled with tact in
order to bridge the ever widening generation gap. Only the reasonable
demands need to be fulfilled, as there are too many expenses to be met and
too many social obligations to be taken care of by the parents. Our
forefathers lived happily in joint families. Children loved to live with their
cousins, learnt to adjust within means. There was perfect harmony between
the generations. There never existed the concept of old-age homes. There
was deep respect for the family elders and love, care and concern for the
youngsters. Even the minor family differences were solved amicably.
