Answer 2

The changes in family constitute the addition and subtraction of members, which affects the family pattern.

• Changes in family pattern are due to various reasons. These include -

1. With industrialisation, urban centres are increasing and people are moving from villages to cities, leaving behind the extended family.
2. Growing educational opportunities and career options allow individuals to switch from agricultural to non-agricultural, manufacturing or service-based occupations.
3. Education and women empowerment also play a significant role as women who are well educated and employed seek jobs in different sectors away from joint home.
4. Death and birth is a natural cause. Birth of a baby and the Old age and death also affect the change in family pattern.
5. Differential earnings and the urge to build one's own home for a more comfortable life are working towards the disintegration of common families.
6. With the fragmentation of land ownership and the release of joint properties, there is no longer a need or compulsion for a joint family.
