Question

Write an essay on family values affected by nuclear families

Answer 1

The joint family system has the potential to ensure sustainability of life and natural resources. This system has several benefits and hence needs to be maintained. Our idea of considering it as a possible model for future families is probably right. In countries like India with a great rise in population, while the resources like land and space becoming scarce, the families and individuals are leading life of worry and tension-chiefly because of financial constraints.

The situation in developed countries is similar, albeit for different reasons. In US, Australia and European countries people are stressed because of job insecurity, difficulty in raising children, pursuing career ambitions, young adults having difficulty starting out on their own, relational problems between spouses. Therefore, whether living in developing countries or the developed countries, the model of joint family has the potential to provide a secure, healthy and stress-free life. In the developing countries like India where there is shortage of houses because of rise in population, more numbers can be adjusted in the same house of living in a joint family. The scarce resources like fuel can be used economically by cooking meal for the whole family

Answer 2

The individual nuclear family is a universal social phenomenon. It can be defined as “a small group composed of husband and wife and immature children which constitutes a unit apart from the rest of the community.” (Duncan Mitchell in his “Dictionary of Sociology’).

In simple words, a nuclear family is one which consists of the husband, wife and their chil­dren. Soon after their marriage, the children leave their parental home and establish their separate household.

Hence, a nuclear family is an autonomous unit free from the control of the elders. Since there is physical distance between parents and their married children, there is minimum interdepen­dence between them. Thus, a nuclear family is mostly independent. The American family is a typical example of the modern independent nuclear family.
