In recent years, the family structure and the role of its members are gradually changing. What kinds of change have occurred? Do you think these changes are positive and negative?
Nowadays families are completely different than they were in the past. A particular example of how the role of family members has changed is concerning how women more present in the job market.
This
essay will present some of those changes and discuss whether or not they are positive or negative.
In the past, the common family role was man work while women raise children
. Although
, it has changed and recently both
man and woman are searching for jobs to cover all costs of living. Nowadays, for example
, both
parents
share the same financial responsibility, something that was men's duty in the past. As a result
of such
change, children
now need to enter earlier in the schools
because both
parents
need to work. To illustrate, the number of primary schools
has increased extremely due to this
rising demand.
In my opinion, the advantages of the aforementioned changes outweigh the disadvantages. First
, the cost of living nowadays is higher than in the past and, as a consequence, both
parents
need to work to solve this
problem. In addition
, I believe it is important for infants to have contact with other children
while they are raising. When children
go to schools
while parents
are working, for instance
, they have the opportunity to play and create a friendship with others, which is important to their growth.
To sum up, it is noticeable some changes in the modern family. Both
parents
are working and children
are going to schools
earlier. I believe those difference are beneficial for all family members.Submitted by samirzakur on
