Today, the family is considered one of the fundamental institutions of our society. It is the institutions of family and marriage that give stability to society and help the reproduction of the population.
They assist each individual in mastering all social norms. How you can behave and how you shouldn’t, how to navigate the society correctly, choose a suitable partner for yourself, create a strong family, how to communicate with parents - a person learns all this in the family. Only in it is it possible to educate a full-fledged member of society. Therefore, the institutions of the family are the main link in the social hierarchy.
A person learns all the values and norms of behavior adopted in the family, and transfers them to the world around him and to his own family built in the future. That is why children brought up outside the family, in orphanages or in adverse conditions, cannot always build the right family. The absence of the correct model of behavior does not allow a person to master the correct role of husband/wife or mother/father. Therefore, the social institutions of the family are the most important fundamental link in society. Without them, humanity would not be able to progress and develop. Scientiststhey say that, in addition to mastering the role system with norms and statuses, family institutions allow a person to learn the features of the rules of behavior in society. If the family is excluded from the "social matrix", then the human world is threatened with chaos and extinction.
Family as guardian of the future
The social institution of family and marriage is the earliest of all. Its norms are passed down from generation to generation, becoming traditions. Society assumes the role of its regulator, for example, forbidding marriages between close relatives. The society supports the institutions of the family: it protects childhood and motherhood, supports the disabled, and controls divorces. Social benefits, payments, guarantees, birth support - all this allows the family to develop and not go into oblivion. All this is enshrined in law or at the level of moral values. Modern society regulates the peculiarities of relationships between men and women, attitudes towards children and the elderly. All this because the family is a decisive stimulus in a person's life and supports his social well-being. It is a strong family that helps a person to properly socialize and realize himself.
She participates in the formation of personality, its development and disclosure of individuality. The continuous process of transferring experience and traditions allows society to remain unchanged.
Same-sex marriage - does it make sense?
Modern society is expanding boundariesinstitution of marriage and family. In addition to allowing the creation and registration of same-sex couples, their rights are equalized in terms of the upbringing and development of the younger generation. That is, same-sex couples received the right to raise children, passing them their own values and rules. It is not entirely clear what this practice might lead to. But most people believe that it destroys the institutions of family and marriage and negatively affects the younger generation, passing on the wrong norms and traditions.
