    Family is the base of all human beings. We do what we learn from our family. In the society, the family is divided into two joint and nuclear families based on the members and the type of relation.

    Joint family is very common in the time of nineteenth centuries and the beginning of twentieth century. Later people are interested to live isolate with their family with husband wife and children. Joint family is the kind of family which all members are living under a roof. The members including grand parents, their children, daughter in laws, grand children, siblings of the grand parents may be their children and family etc. May be they have a common source for money like business or farming etc. They jointly maintain their businesses and earnings. In the joint family, the head of the family was mostly the elder male member. The female members needs to cook for the whole members of that family.

    Joint family helps mainly for the children and grand parents. Children know how a good relationship occur, how to respect, etc. It means they are aware about the group of people and knows the behaviour. As a joint family, the parents are not able to take care of their children. So that the elder brother or sister in the children take care of their younger. So that they are being self independent. And the grand parents or the elder members can spend their last stage of their life with their beloved family.

    The joint family structure, like every other social arrangement, has pros and cons. Many people, however, emphasized the value of a combined family. Even in this era of nuclear families, the joint family system still exists and is significant.

    A child raised in a joint family knows to live collectively, appreciate others, and is always surrounded by people with whom they can communicate, play, and exchange their thoughts and experiences, whereas a child raised in a nuclear family would become lonely not all of us can live in such a quiet environment. Kids who grow up with cousins, uncles, aunts, and grandparents have the chance to establish close ties with all of them. Especially the link that practically every youngster has with their grandparents. This is one of the most important qualities of a combined home.

    Living in a joint family encourages you to respect your elders and younger siblings, as well as to coexist peacefully with one another, which is essential for a happy existence. We should encourage families to live together in the future.A large family functions as a cohesive unit, especially when it comes to household tasks such as cooking and cleaning. Family members get together to guarantee that duties are completed on time, if not ahead of schedule. In a nutshell, no one in the family experiences work-related stress.

    For monthly bills, all working family members donate to the household fund. As a safety net, this mechanism is also in place. When a member loses a job or loses his or her employment, others band together to guarantee that his or her basic necessities are met.

    Usually in today’s time, joint families are not having that kind of respect and value, which the joint families used to have in earlier times. Joint families are being neglected nowadays, rather nuclear family is being promoted by all. Joint families are the blessings by god. It has only all advantages and benefits.

    The benefits of joint families are:

    One will never feel alone

    If we live in a joint family, we have atleast 7-10 family members by which you will never feel alone. You will be surrounded by your family members anytime you will find somebody to talk to and take care of yourself.

    When we have problems, family helps us

    Whenever we have any urgent need, the family members are always there to help you out, whether it is a midnight or day. You will be helped.

    Children living with their families and grandparents receive additional love and care. They are taught to respect everyone. The children’s upbringing becomes very good if the children lives with their whole family.

    The love of family remains constant. There gets no kind of partition between the brothers and sisters. They are taught to live and keep their family joint in every situation.

    Joint families were predominant in the early days, in today’s date joint families are rare. A joint family is basically a family where everyone like grandparent, aunt, uncle cousins stay together. With the passage of time due to internal malfunctioning joint families have been broken down into nuclear families which consists of only the mother, father and their children. The culture of joint family had a great impact on human lives and have numerous benefits such as:

    1. Joint families imparted the value of unity and even practically demonstrated it, if a problem arises then it is not that only person e=who is into it solves it but the entire family joins hand and does the work this again makes the work simplified as everyone does their expertise.

    2. In joint family children learn to share things and not act selfish they grow compassion for each other and also learn to love and care for each other.
