My mum says life is so different these days — new technologies,
new ways of communication, new standards and traditions.
However, family still plays an important role in our modern
world. Just like in the past, family means a married couple, with or

without children. There are also relatives — people that are related to
us, like grandparents, uncles and aunts, cousins and so on. However, a family is more than just a
group of people connected by roots. This is a place where we get help and support in life. Plus,
different nationalities have different family standards. For example, in many countries both parents
work while in others a man is the only person with a job. There are families where parents live
apart from their children and those who are always together. Some children grow up in a full family,
whereas others only have a mum or a dad. The number of kids in a family is not the same, too, and
there are cultures where a pet can be a family member. Thanks to today’s globalization, we can all
share and discover different views and habits in every country. However, there are some things that
all nations have in common — a family is a place of love and support.
