In many places, people’s lifestyles are changing rapidly, and this affects family relationships. Do you think the advantages of such developments outweigh the disadvantages

With a rapidly changing business and technological atmosphere, the family

structure

is transforming throughout the world. I think

this

has numerous advantages ranging from better career opportunities

to

for

greater independence.

This

has a major disadvantage of lack of emotional bond among family members. The

structure

is changing from joint family to nuclear family.

This

allows younger family members to focus more on career and less on family obligations. Members of a joint family are often engaged in taking care of elderly and dependent members. A nuclear family is free of

such

compulsions and allows youngsters to spend more time on economically productive.

Moreover

, a nuclear family allows all members to stay free of any interference. A joint family not only has more than two generations living under the same

roof but

roof, but

also

several uncles, aunts, and cousins in close vicinity.

This

leaves little room for privacy and almost no independence. The changing family

structure

,

on the other hand

, allows separate rooms for all members and,

hence

, they have the independence to act according to their wish.

However

,

this

often leads to weakening of emotional bond among people. When the family

structure

breaks, it leads to lesser responsibility towards others and greater individuality.

This

results in a selfish culture in which each member looks after her interests and not that of others.

Consequently

, people become more materialistic and lesser human.

For example

, the changing family

structure

in Europe has resulted in more materialism while the

tribals

a social division of (usually preliterate) people

trials

in Asia follow the traditional family

structure

and have strong emotions for other members of the family. In conclusion, though the changing family

structure

results in a lack of emotional bond, it is beneficial for the individual and the economy.
