Summary
A family is a social unit consisting of a couple and their children, and it is also the most basic unit of society. If a family is defined this way, it is almost universal in all societies, such as in the case of marriage. Like many other concepts used in social science, however, it is difficult for families to have strict definitions that apply to different social cases in a comparative culture. A family is defined as "a community of people who live together and are characterized by economic cooperation and the production of children." This definition is consistent with the definition of a family that we usually think of. In other words, the members of a family make up a family, live together, act as an economic cooperative, and give birth to a child through a socially recognized sexual relationship.
Interesting
The current trend seems to be that many people think marriage is an unconditional choice. So, why do single men and women think of "unmarriage" rather than "marriage"? When asked why they thought of marrying single men and women who were not married, 68.3 percent said they wanted to live freely in both work and personal life. These answers were highest for both single men and single women. Next, some single men said they thought about their non-marriage because they wanted to live more and more financially.
Discussion
As mentioned above, why are people increasingly not getting married? Do you think it will be difficult to invest time/expenses for me after marriage? Is it burdensome to have and raise children? Are you used to and satisfied with your current life? I think there are so many reasons that I think it is the responsibility of the country to create the society. So what should society do to encourage marriage?
I think there are many reasons for the increase of single families. According to a survey, changes in the value of marriage (65.9 percent), increased individualism (59.4 percent), increased unmarried people (36.3 percent), increased unemployment due to economic difficulties of young people (36.3 percent), and increased the age gap (37.9 percent)
ReplyDeleteI think our country's economic structure is the biggest factor in avoiding marriage. You need a house to get married and have a family. The price of real estate in Korea is going up every day. In fact, if a family is not rich, they cannot get married before the age of 30. As the time of marriage slows down and economic problems overlap, even the need for marriage disappears. In other words, it is necessary for the current nation to support apartments and childcare support to married families. However, the government needs to be careful, as this could lead to huge national taxes.
