Q5.
Sociologists say that two in every five marriages now are expected to fail. The number of first marriages is
at its lowest level and it has halved in fewer than 30 years. These figures have profound social and
economic consequences for families. Educators warn that it is children who suffer more when their
peaceful lives get absolutely ruined down.
Q6.
Pressures on the modern family may have a lot to do with learning difficulties teachers are seeing in
classrooms. The strong family remains the best place to bring up children to become creative and engaged
persons. Not only parental separation but fear of possible separation has a huge effect on children. This fear
interferes with the children’s classroom activities and their social behavior.
Q7.
Modern parents are still ready to make sacrifices for their children. However, their busy lives are a major
factor in a culture that is less and less child-friendly. Working parents need a lot of thought and creativity
to find time for their children. Parents mainly think about providing economically for children, and are not
attentive enough to their children’s vital emotional needs.
