    FAMILY

    When British and American people use the word family they often mean only the mother,
    father and their children. In general social context“the family“is usually taken to mean this
    nuclear family.

    Society in Britain and the US is traditionally based on a nuclear family living in the same
    house and closely involved in each other's lives.Fifty years ago, the typical family was a
    husband and a wife, and two or three children.The father spent all day at work and made most
    of the decisions about how the money he earned was spent. The mother stayed at home to
    manage the house and look after the children.Children were expected to obey their parents.

    Many modern families live rather differently, and because of this this some people think that
    the family unit is dying and society is being weakened.Many couples still get married, but
    others live together without getting married.A few years ago, couples living together usually
    got married when they wanted to start a family, but this happens less now.Another trend is for
    people to get married later in life and to have fewer children, so the size of the average family
    is shrinking.
