There is an increasing trend around the world to have a small family rather than a large family. What are the advantages and disadvantages of having a small family rather than a larger family?

It is becoming important across the globe to have a nuclear family rather than a joint family.

Although

there are many benefits of having

such

families,

this

phenomenon has demerits too. Subsequent paragraphs will explain them in detail.  There are numerous advantages of planning a small family. Primarily, it decreases housing expenditures. To elaborate, if the number of members is less in a family,

then

they could live in small houses. Ultimately,

this

would benefit working people to have low-rented apartments in spite of living in big flats. Another key feature is it reduces the burden of responsibility as a whole. Since fewer individuals in nuclear families are dependent as compared to the count in joint families.

As a result

, it descends the pressure to meet the demands of every generation ,especially of their kids.

For instance

, my colleague now easily manages her roles financially because of a little family of four members.

On the other hand

,

this

practice is sometimes disadvantageous too. First of all, it causes a lack of support

the members of the family. To elucidate, when an individual needs emotional strength because of hardships in one’s life,

then

there is no one to assist them completely in that difficult times.

Moreover

To conclude

,despite the fact that there are multiple advantages of

this

process, one must not turn a blind eye towards its merits in terms of less burden and low housing rents on people.

Therefore

, it is mandatory to balance

and have at least occasional outings to meet everyone in the family so that a child could not get a feeling of loneliness.
