I am part of a nuclear / an extended family.
2. What do you like and dislike about your type of family?
Extended family
- Pros:
During childhood: get chance to hear a good night stories from your grandparents; have your cousins to play with; have your uncles/aunts to ask for money whenever your parents refuse or to have an eye on you when parents are at work.
Becoming teenage and mature: learn moral values from elders, receive help, given useful advice, taken care of and supported whenever you are in need.
Cons:
Need to follow family norms; might have less privacy; can`t make your own decisions because you have to ask everyone before taking big step; get in conflicts because of differences and disagreements in lifestyles and perception.
Nuclear family
- Pros:
Have more privacy; make your own decisions; don’t need to share things; don’t have much potentiality of differences and disagreements which may lead to conflicts.
Cons:
Less people to talk to; probably no one to seek help in certain situations; constant feeling of solitude; lack of proper direction and guidance; too many responsibilities on a single bread earner; children grow up being introvert and participate in less social events.
