In many nations, people in huge cities either live alone or in small family units, instead of in large, extended family groups. Is this a positive or negative trend?

People in megacities have been developing a tendency of living independently or in small family units recently, rather than in extended families. In my own perspective, I believe that development comprises a more range of positive changes than negative effects. Many today believe that living in a small household can enhance the relationship state between family members.

This

type of family usually comprises just two groups of

parents

and

children

without support from the elderly, and by having more time together, the relationship between

parents

and

children

would become more stable. Not only can the

parents

be more responsible for their kids

instead

of depending on the older generations, but the

children

can receive most of the love and share from their

parents

. Unlike small family units or single-parent and extended ones have to deal with more conflicts because of the generation gap, particularly the differences in perspectives between generations or the lack of sympathy.

Consequently

, the most affected person from these conflicts are the

children

because of the negative effects, and it

also

influences relationships. What is more,

while

some prefer to live

a nuclear family or single-parent households, others are

also

likely to live alone, especially youngsters.

Although

living alone can be full of loneliness for some, society has developed numerous nursery centres with modern equipment to look after the elderly, and owning a pet can

also

be a solution for loneliness.

Moreover

, with the observation that many previous generations have to work a nine-to-five life and carry a huge financial burden

as well as

responsibilities for their families, many youths share a trend of living independently without engagement.

Thus

, living alone would give youngsters plenty of opportunities to have more time for self-care

as well as

self-growth and it can benefit the population by reducing the number of newborns.

To conclude

, I trust that living in a small household can improve the relationship between

parents

and

children

without serious conflicts in the generation gap as the extended family, or even living alone can

also

be a positive choice for youngsters to spend more quality time for themselves and

due to

the far meaning behind it of delaying the growing population.
