As we all agreed in today´s class we are going to write about family.
First, I would like to state that the word "family" for me is a word that involves a lot.
It is a great and strong pillar, fundamental for our society.
This is my belief so far but this concept of traditional family has been changing a lot. If we compare old families and modern families they have many differences, for example, old families were bigger now families are smaller, with just three or four members even fewer. Also family customs have been deeply changed, for instance, old mothers stayed at home and brought her children up meanwhile her husbands went to work, whose jobs were the "bread and butter" of the family.
According to my point of view and own reflection modern times have brought positive and negative things to our society that have affected families. The access to technology, science, health and education have provided to people with a variety source of knowledge that has been an indispensable contribution. Nowadays, people "know " more than before. Consequently, this new phenomenon has pros and cons but family's lives have been affected in the way they deal with those changes. Life is faster now and sometimes there is no enough time to get together with our families.
I think we can take advantage of the good aspects of the past times and connect them with the positive of modern ones. It may be a solution to what sometimes might become stressful and overwhelming and I am very optimistic about the future, if we have a strong family support everything can be solved.

ReplyDeleteThe difference between current and former families is notorious.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations! I agree with many things that you mention about the family.
Miss Cecilia, this class was very funny thank you very much. The Family is very importante
ReplyDeleteToday technology has harmed the family. I share that the family is the most important
ReplyDeleteI partially agree with you because the use of technology can be supervised and monitored by the adults.
DeleteI agree with you that modern times have brought positive things to our society. technology and access to basic things has been equal for all, but as I comment in my blog I think that society is built by people over what technology can deliver us, the values and convictions that we can deliver our children are fundamental for their development in the new generations, lifestyle and fashions that change as much as technology.
ReplyDeleteBest regards
ReplyDeleteFor me, the family is very important, where you learn values, the basis for the development and progress of society. It is, perhaps, the only space where we feel confident, full; It is the refuge where we are and we celebrate for who we are.
