statement as children brought up in extended families are not starved of attention and can develop versatile personalities due to the input and influence of every family member. Shortage of attention is one of the most worrying problems nowadays and it can never be an issue in big families, in which everyone is involved in the nurturing and raising of the children.

If it weren’t for other relatives’ help, the majority of children would be doomed to loneliness and a feeling of being unwanted.

One more beneficial side no one would argue with is the positive influence of a multifaceted approach to a child’s education. Every family member is an expert in some certain field which opens the opportunities for children to choose the ones they need the most, be it mathematics or physics.

To conclude, the benefits of being brought up in extended families are evident due to the fact that children are surrounded by constant care of all family members and can grow into a multi-talented person.
