A family is a group in which individuals of different genders and ages either related by blood, marriage, adoption live in a friendly or cordially and in an organized way. Family members get love, affection, security, and support through a family. It is believed that the concept of the family started in the human developmental stage of the stone age. S/he grows up and lives in a family. So s/he needs help and compassion for members of the family. Families are of two types. They are a nuclear family and a joint family. The nuclear family consists mostly of only 3 to 4 family members like father, mother, and child. Whereas in a joint family there are many family members living together in the same house as a grandfather, grandmother, father, mother, uncle, aunt, brother, sister and the child, etc. A small sized joint family is considered to be a suitable family. We all hold a common aim of making our own family happy and prosperous. Whether it is a Nuclear family or a joint family, a family is needed by all. The importance of family is below:
The individual receives familial; religious; social; cultural; spiritual; moral knowledge from a family.
