Week13/ Family/ MinSeung Sung

1. Summary
  Most people have a network of family. Here we will learn about the structure and definition of a family. How has the meaning of a traditional family changed so far? And I want to find out how the concept of the family came about.
Defining the concept of a family is a new thing that only began today. There are many different types of family types in modern society. Cats, homosexuals, and single families. This format has a dominant figure in the United States.
In some countries, the function of a family is to produce and socialize children. Having no children does not mean having a function as a family. These families have social, economic, emotional and supportive networks.
In the socio-biological sense, families often ban incestuous relationships.

2. Interesting

  The most interesting thing was 'Courtship' in family theory. I usually thought that family meaning is after marriage, but I could see that the wider range of family theory is explained. It is a traditional concept and it means a couple who have not married yet. It is defined more broadly in modern society. All the activities of a lover making light contact through his or her cell phone and giving gifts are included in 'Courtship.'

3.Discussion

  The meaning of family has changed from the past to the modern world. The basic meaning has not been lost, but more diverse forms have emerged. Then, I wonder what new types of family will be in the future.
