Description

Family is a group of people related either by consanguinity or affinity. It forms the basis for social order. The purpose of the family is to maintain the well-being of its members and of society. Ideally, families offer predictability, structure, and safety as members mature and learn to participate in the community. Historically, most human societies use family as the primary purpose of attachment, nurturance, and socialization.

পরিবার পিতা মাতা ও তাদের সন্তান-সন্ততিদের কেন্দ্র করে হতে পারে, দ্বিতীয়ত একসঙ্গে বসবাসরত আত্মীয়-স্বজন সমবায়ে একটি প্রসারিত পরিবারও হতে পারে। তৃতীয় ধরনের পরিবার হলো একটি বৃহৎ সংসার, যেখানে অন্যান্য আত্মীয় ও ছেলেমেয়েদের সঙ্গে কিংবা তাদের ছাড়া অনাত্মীয়রাও যুক্ত হয়। পরিবার প্রায়শ সন্তানসহ বা সন্তানবিহীন এক বা একাধিক দম্পতির ছোট সংসার নিয়ে গঠিত। এর আর্থিক ভিত্তি রয়েছে। এই ভিত্তিকে কেন্দ্র করে আত্মীয়, সামাজিক সম্পর্ক ও প্রতিষ্ঠান গড়ে ওঠে এবং ঐক্যবদ্ধ কাজের মাধ্যমে তা রূপায়িত হয়। পরিবারের বিকাশে সন্ধানযোগ্য বংশগত সম্পর্ক সাধারণত জ্ঞাতি সম্পর্কের চেয়ে অগ্রাধিকার পায়। এই শৃঙ্খলার মধ্যে সদস্যরা সমাজের আর্থিক ও সামাজিক উপ-প্রথাগুলি গড়ে তোলে।
