Raising children is a major responsibility that requires imparting a value system to help guide them. As young adults, children are encouraged to leave home and begin independent lives between 18-21 years old. For elderly family members, financial support often comes from social security rather than dependence on family. While the nuclear family is traditionally considered the standard family structure in the US, extended families including grandparents and other relatives are more common in other cultures. The modern American family is changing with higher rates of separation, divorce, and single-parent families resulting in less stable structures.Types of families

Structural family theory was developed by Salvador Minuchin, a pediatrician from Argentina. It focuses on the organization and structure of families, including subsystems, boundaries, roles and alliances. Problems arise when boundaries are too rigid or diffuse, or when members are disengaged or enmeshed. Assessment involves examining the family structure, and interventions aim to realign the structure through techniques like sculpting communication and role plays. The theory has been applied to families facing issues like poverty, illness, and substance abuse.More Related Content

Structural Family Therapy (SFT) focuses on the family system and interactions between family members. The founder, Salvador Minuchin, believed families have innate abilities to solve their own problems and therapists should work collaboratively to uncover these abilities. SFT aims to restructure family dynamics by altering boundaries between subsystems and the hierarchy of power. Therapists map the family structure, highlight interactions, and use enactments to diagnose issues and facilitate change. The goal is to activate healthy patterns of relating rather than impose new structures.Sociology - the family institution

Social institutions are established sets of norms and subsystems that support a society's survival. Examples include families, governments, and universities. A social institution performs social functions like satisfying needs, socializing individuals, and coordinating and stabilizing a culture. The family is the most important social institution. It socializes children, transmits culture, and provides affection, security, and social status. Education is also a major social institution. It transmits knowledge, values, and behaviors between generations through both formal schooling and informal socialization within families. Schools have intellectual, political, social, and economic functions like teaching skills, inculcating allegiance, socializing individuals for roles, and preparing them for occupations.social institution
