Family - The World's Strongest Bond



In general a family is defined as a household of persons related by blood or marriage. The modern society has complicated the marriage institution and brought in the same sex partners into the institution. The current types of families witnessed all over the world are;

Extended Family        - Includes Grandparents etc.
Single Parent              -One parent.
Blended Family          -Couple and one or more children from previous relationship.
Nuclear                       -Husband, Wife and one or more children biological or adopted.
Gay Family                 -Persons of same sex

Family life is the most integral part of life to each and everyone. This is the institution which builds up ones personality. Your character and whatever values one cherishes are all dependent on one’s family background or support. 

The family life is very crucial in a person’s development. The aspirations and goals people set are all hinged on the family background one comes from. It is therefore necessary for an individual to attract the support of the family in his/her activities. Without the support or backing of families in activities of persons then the motivation and commitment in work may never be witnessed. On may be working just as a formality but with no focus.
Family life provides the parents with an opportunity to be role models to their children. You shape the future of the children right from the family.

Learn to safeguard your family. This is a blessed institution by God. Don not expose your children to dangerous habits like drinking and smoking. If you are a drug addict then do your drugs outside the home setup and in the absence of the children.
