Summary for group three's blog-Family
What is a family?
A family consists of a domestic group of people (or a number of domestic groups), typically affiliated by birth or marriage, or by analogous or comparable relationships — including domestic partnership, cohabitation, adoption, surname and (in some cases) ownership (as occurred in the Roman Empire).

What are the pros and cons of having only a child in the family?
Pros
-The child will not have to quarrel and fight over things with his/her siblings since he/she does not has one.
-Having one child in the family means that parents will not have to take care of more than 1 child,pay less and have more quiet times.
-The child will be able to get all the attention from his/her parents
-Couples can maintain a comfortable standard of living, not only for their child but also for themselves. An only child certainly benefits from having the family financial resources focussed upon him or herself.
-Parents of only children no longer have to worry about their child being lonely or at a social disadvantage. Mobility and the resources to support an active social life have put an end to that. Only children have friends to stay over on a regular basis and at school they have no problem fitting in and making new friends. Many of their classmates are also only children.
-Parents of only children have more time to focus on the general aspects of child development and learning issues and can give their child that individual attention that makes such a difference.


Cons
-The child will not be able to experience a sibling relationship
-The child will be pressurized by parents to be successful.
-no one to care for when he/she grows old.
-The child would not have a brother/sister to fight with, play with, laugh with or perhaps a sibling to confide in.
-The child will feel sad whenever he hear from his/her friends about how much fun hey had with their siblings.
-Since the child does not have any siblings, he/she will not learn to share things with others.As a result, the child will slowly turn to become a selfish person when he/she grows up.
