Talk:Nuclear family

2543:

are becoming more common nowadays due to encouragement to abandon narcissistic relatives. It was not a feature of a cereal-box picture perfect family because the parents are supposed to keep in contact with their grown siblings and parents and let their children bond with their aunts, uncles, cousins, and grandparents. Sometimes they are even allowed to live together: children staying over at their grandparents or aunts/uncles for extended or short periods of time is expected and sometimes even encouraged. Therefore we have a definition clash as to what a nuclear family is. Is it a genetic family consisting of a married male and female and their offspring living under one roof with absolutely no close-relatives living with them? Or is it about a married male and female and their offspring living under one roof with no contact and intervention from relatives interacting with those children? Does it change from a nuclear family to an extended family the moment a grandfather dies and the widowed grandmother moves in to support herself? Does it change from a nuclear family to an extended family the moment the husband's father apologizes for going out to buy milk and never coming back and he's allowed to talk to his grandchildren now? Does it change from an extended family to a nuclear family when two parents and their children move out of town and, due to the year and technology available, use only phones to keep in contact? Since the 1950s ideal includes talking to other relatives and the 2020s ideal does not include talking to other relatives, what is a nuclear family? Is it just a heteronormative monogamous family or is it stricter than that?

these two points I feel it puts gay relationships in a negative light even if it wasn't intended. Further I would like to point out a wider discussion about the nuclear family, in that for some Socialists, the nuclear family is by-product of capitalism, and is therefore merely the 'Bourgeois Family’. This ‘family’ in Socialist Feminist thought is the origins of Patriarchy and the systematic oppression of women. We assume as westerners that the nuclear family is the most desirable and normal, but in pre-capitalist society families were in a communal setting and often polygamous. Judeo-Christianity in the west has created the structure of validating sexual intercourse through a ceremony of a man and a woman. However ‘Bourgeois Marriage’ was the contract between two families merging/exchanging capital and assets see dowry system. This article should explore a much wider context, which it currently doesn’t and is based on western assumptions about the natural structure of the family we call the nuclear family. I do not dismiss any good intentions of this article or homophobic intent, there very good articles in wikipedia about homosexuality, however this article isn’t one of them.

2508:(the older mother's grandchildren) and they all live in the same house. Or we could have more people living in there. A husband and wife, their grown daughter, as well as her husband and their children (grandparents own house; their adult daughter, that adult's spouse, and their grand/children all live together sharing one house). We could have a much bigger house where you have multiple families living together at once, such as an Iroquois longhouse. We could have a different sort of situation, like three brothers living together paying rent, and one's widowed and raising his child with his brothers (the child's uncles). It could be three women who are friends all raising their own children together- they're single moms, but not really. It could be a polycule all living together with their children. These are all examples of a non-nuclear family set-up, all of which could be called an extended family (depending on your definition, the "single-mom" trio and/or polycule may not count). 2532:"narcissistic" or otherwise have a lifestyle or moral values that they not only don't want to impart onto their children, but also that they don't want their children to even come into contact with these individuals. This is done by Americans of many races these days, including white people. I would say that some types on the political right speak out against this sort of intense family shunning. Combating the need for complete individual freedom (like breaking away from parents and siblings so that they have no idea what's going on in their own life whatsoever) is something that they fight against sometimes. The right to interact with grandchildren and nieces/nephews despite political differences. The fight against personal estrangement. The family must live on, but ideally grown children move out of the house into their own and get married and have children. But that doesn't mean they break away completely. 1370:…In main Article: Is stated[ can be any size, as long as the family can support itself and,.( the continuation is in of course 'the main article.

where the women's income seems to count. That doesn't mean that people don't use it in that way, to indicate a male breadwinner, but it does show that for this article currently it's about a fully genetic family living with their children. It doesn't matter if she's an actress and he's an at-home parent, so long as if all the children raised are biologically there's, it's a nuclear family. That means that if they ever adopt a child, it's not a nuclear family. I don't agree with that definition personally, but that's where the article stands right now.

determined by race. Pew Research Center has found that 54% of African-American individuals will be single parents compared to 19% of Caucasian individuals.Several factors account for the differences in family structure including economic and social class. Differences in education level also change the amount of single parents. In 2014, those with less than a high school education are 46% more likely to be a single parent compared to 12% who have graduated college.".

a pair of adults and their socially recognized children. Typically, but not always, the adults in a nuclear family are married. Although such couples are most often a man and a woman, the definition of the nuclear family has expanded with the advent of same-sex marriage. Children in a nuclear family may be the couple’s biological or adopted offspring." I suggest more neutral language is required in the lead paragraph of this article and elsewhere.

The CDC should at least be expected to know of the existence of unrecognized same-sex families. (Also as a note, the phrase "all men are created equal" was in fact interpreted by some at that time to renounce slavery.) 1765: 297: 2516:

together is not too unusual. We see many representations in family sitcoms. To say it in a way some people will understand, "it's a very white thing to do". In actual, real-life family dynamics, if the children do not live with their grandparent or uncle/aunt (or even if they do) they are supposed to visit and occasionally stay with them. That can be anything from:

the Cold War during the 1950's through 1970's period and had largely disappeared from usage by the 1980's. The term did not associate itself with extended, adopted, step-families and homosexual relationships as those types of relationships did not lend themselves to the 'perfect' family concept and, during that period, carried significant social stigma's.

2376:

They would get into arguments with people randomly and would just never let up about their moral superiority and rightness of it all. Then there's the same exact archetype of dude who does the same with Marxism/communism/socialism. They make it their whole identity and use it as some entitlement or license to high-horse everyone.

1808:"'traditional' nuclear famil." Since when has anything other than a family headed by a mother and father ever been described as "traditional?" Given that this study began in 2001 when there was no such thing as gay marriage in the U.S., it's odd that the CDC would include anything other than a mother and father under "nuclear." 2131:

I am thinking of things that could be added to this Knowledge article to make it better. I would like to add what the nuclear family looks like today how it has or hasn't changed and the pros and cons of nuclear family's and possibly if I can find more information it would be interesting to expand on

2111:

The Functionalist perspective of the family makes exactly the claim that the nuclear family is the "basic building block" of society and is written about extensively. The omission of discussion of support of the claim and the inclusion of such poor example of challenges are evidence non-neutrality of

2020:

The term 'nuclear family' was coined in the 1950's in the new nuclear age. It was used to describe a modern, middle class, 'perfect' family consisting of a married man and a woman and their biological children, usually one male child and one female child. The term was mostly used during the height of

1873:

American conservatives are really defenders of nuclear family? I am not an American, but, for what I know about American conservatism, they dont't seem to have any problem with enlarged families, with strong relations between sons, parents, grandparents, cousins, uncles, etc (eventually living in the

1842:

The text itself was written some time between 2007 and October 2010. Just because they chose not to study same-sex parents does not mean they didn't conceive of their existence, an assumption I would consider dubious for any time at least since 1970. I could conversely say that since the study does

1201:

This article does seem to lack NPV in regards to families of same-sex spouses. Encyclopedia Britannica addresses this issue frankly: "nuclear family, also called elementary family, in sociology and anthropology, a group of people who are united by ties of partnership and parenthood and consisting of

2535:

That strict family idea, where a bread-winning father and his house-keeping wife and their children all live under one roof and shun the rest of the family is not that 1950s ideal. It's a family that has shunned their relatives from intervening with them. A lot of cult or deep-Christian converts end

2523:

This all falls in that realm of a picture-perfect white family. Some are slightly less perfect and weird, but they still fall into the typical family models pre-2010s American Caucasians can expect. If someone's trying to follow the traditional Caucasian-family lifestyle, then you don't want to take

2230:

This sentence makes claims not even supported by this article: "As diversity in the United States continues to increase, it is becoming difficult for the classically traditional family unit—a heterosexual couple of the same race and ethnicity with two children—to stay the norm". This article itself

1164:

The article quotes George Murdock's description of NFs: "It contains adults of both sexes, at least two of whom maintain a socially approved sexual relationship..." This permits polygamy, but not monogamous gay relationships(?...) I, personally, consider gay couples with children "nuclear families,"

2507:

It seems to me that a nuclear family consists of a husband, a wife, and their child/ren, all living under one roof. An extended family, in contrast, has more family members living together with them. This could simply be an in-law. For example: a husband, a wife, her mother, and the wife's children

2454:

Thanks I did read that part, but I was wondering more who originally came up with the term and if they were trying to develop some kind of model(as in approximation) in relating the family to particle physics and if they had more writings and expanding on it for more comparisons about how societies

1256:

Frankly, upon reading the whole divorce section I think it's not that relevant or well-written to begin with. I guess the question is, what happens to a nuclear family when a divorce happens. If it's no longer a nuclear family by definition, then it isn't "challenging" the nuclear family, it simply

2542:

1950s-2000s White-Americans have an extended family system according to some definitions of the differences between nuclear families and extended families. True nuclear families are typically due to religious cults, extreme personal independence, or strong distaste of family. True nuclear families

2531:

There is also another important deviation. The strictly nuclear family. What's trending now is parents who are actively preventing grandparents and their siblings from taking part in their grandchildren's/nieces/nephews lives. This is often done under the belief that those other family members are

2527:

The deviation comes from when you have two married couples living together, any of the other possible arrangements I mentioned farther above, and more. Having three aunts stay together in a married couple's house is unusual. Having two unrelated couples with their offspring together is unusual and

2515:

The issue here that I want to focus on is the distaste of a presumed picture-perfect 1950s Caucasian family that is skewing the image. Most Caucasian-American conservative families actually do include relatives. Having an in-law/parent/grandparent or adult brother/uncle or adult sister/aunt living

2511:

It seems to be that for some people, step-parent and monogamous gay parents also do not count. Though we still have the same situation where you have two parents and their children living under one roof. That seems to skew the definition a bit towards being heteronormative. I'm not seeing anything

2428:

While the phrase dates approximately from the Atomic Age, the term "nuclear" is not used here in the context of nuclear warfare, nuclear power, nuclear fission or nuclear fusion; rather, it arises from a more general use of the noun nucleus, itself originating in the Latin nux, meaning "nut", i.e.

2300:

The Nuclear Family as a "nucleus" of father-mother-children, is still the most prevalent family structure in America; , with 70 percent living in two-parent families in 2005. Taking an extended family by its literal meaning of "extension", Extended families and Two-parent families are not mutually

2222:

This phrase isn't in the reference and from what I can tell isn't supported by it: "The numbers of nuclear families is slowly dwindling in the US as more women pursue higher education, develop professional lives, and delay having children until later in their life." It's probably right, but isn't

1112:

I feel personally that this article may have been written to be balanced, but I must come from a different point of view and state I don't feel it is. I feel that it dismisses homosexual relationships, emphasizing it only affects a 'minority', and that is not accepted in most countries, but using

2375:

Looking at all the references here I just have to assume this is the work of the "just love. don't judge" people. I've been a lifelong atheist, but I've never been in your face about it, but everyone has known a person who identified as an atheist and would constantly be confrontational about it.

2226:

This phrase just like the other is not supported by the reference: "Children and marriage have become less appealing as many women continue to face societal, familial, and/or peer pressure to give up their education and successful career to focus on stabilizing the home." There is no talk of how

1445:

According to a 1954 issue of McCall's magazine: "he most impressive and the most heartening feature of this change is that men, women, children are achieving it together. They are creating this new and warmer way of life not as women alone or men alone, isolated from one another, but as a family

2107:

The cited article, "Freudian Theories of Identification and Their Derivatives" by Urie Bronfenbrenner, was published nearly 60 years ago. That the publication is so old should be taken into account since it seems to be included only to discredit the argument that " central to stability in modern

1823:

Yes, I think when we're looking at older definitions, it's going to be difficult to say that 'two parents married to each other' was intended by the speaker to mean anything other than father and mother. The reason the speaker may not have stated father and mother specifically, is they couldn't

up in this situation. It happens with other religions too. Sometimes the husband and wife roles are circumstantial and not part of their value system. Atheists can end up having that sort of family dynamic. But again, it can be just for religion, but politics and lifestyle differences as well.

2103:

This article is improperly cited. The text seems to imply that the citation is from a publication by Freud himself entitled "Theories of Identification and Their Derivatives", as it says "in 'he' states ...", though the actual author is not named and the source is not included in the list of

There are more ways to have a multiple-parent families than with Polygamy. These include Polyandry and Polyamory, probably others. Perhaps this could be modified to be closer to: "This is in contrast to families with a single parent, the larger extended family, and other family arrangements

I suppose this should be clarified. I guess what it's implying is that prior to proto-industrialization (PS, the wiki article on this topic is worthless and uncited) you basically saw either communal village living or vassals living with their lord, either of which violating nuclear family

And Al Franken's interpretation is not a reliable source. Also, on page 15 of that study, it provides a pie chart showing the make-up of family types in the study. 48.4% are shown to be "Nuclear." However, the text on the page which elaborates on the pie chart describes that group to be

2269:

While the 4 are arranged as a nuclear family in death, there was also 12 other people buried nearby. To me, it doesn't seem genuinely relevant to the concept of a nuclear family. We don't know anything about their living family structure or household (if they even had a household).

I'm not certain what happened to this text, but the references have been lost and the content is at odds with recent information from the US Census bureau. I'm placing the sections there to encourage editing them back into a form that can be inserted back into the article. Thanks.

1789:. I added a sentence clarifying it. Though I did not use your source, Encyclopedia Britannica acknowledges this concern specifically, and a textbook referenced cites an inclusive definition as well. I think we can conclude that for the time being, both definitions are in use. 2450:

Ah, thank you for the response, I will look into if you say it's a good resource. I don't want to judge a book by it's cover, but to me "The Way We Never Were: American Families and the Nostalgia Trap", with a sensational and negative title it seems like it's going to be a bit

2379:

I just came here to possibly find an unbiased book that explains the history of the nuclear family and why it has a name relating to physics. Basically, what I'm saying is, with all due respect, the lgbtq+ community is becoming the cringy atheist anarchist of the 2020s.

1270:

The number of single parent families in society is challenging the idea of the nuclear family. Divorce has given rise to different living arrangements for parents and chidren. These post-nuclear families have been described as “broken because the marriage bond has been

2070:

The first two paragraphs of this section seem to conflict; or perhaps I'm misreading or it needs rephrasing. The result seems to convey to me that a majority of children in the U.S. live in a nuclear family, yet the second paragraph conveys that a small minority do.

1308:

Since this article began some have inserted commentary on the family itself. For instance, this section is more of a commentary on family itself rather than on the nuclear family structure. If there's no objection, I'll move it to the 'Family' article instead.

The history section opens with this: "DNA extracted from bones and teeth in a 4,600-year-old Stone Age burial in Germany has provided the earliest evidence for the social recognition of a family consisting of two parents with multiple children."

do you have any changes (with, of course, supporting sources) to suggest? If your criticism is that the article fails to adequately and neutrally summarize reliable mainstream sources on the topic, we need specifics. (And I'll point out that

The last sentence in the first paragraph seems like it is trying to imply that the nuclear family is the most common living arrangement in the united states, it no longer is (by a small margin) as childless couples are more common.

I would expect that a nuclear family could exist before the industrial era, and this article's section on history gives no mention of earlier challenges. To be blunt: What on earth is this sentence trying to say?
