Family diversity

family diversity:
means that there are many different types of family in society

  • Nuclear families: family unit with just the two parents and children
  • Single-parent families: is no other adults besides mother or father, and other children
  • Extended families:family consists of:parents,Children
  • Blended families:remarriage
  • Sub families: cluster of family parent isn't the main figure,
  • Adoptive families: family with at least one adoptive child,
  • Foster families: when children move around,
  • gay or lesbians: family's
  • families parents who abuse and neglect
After reading about all of these family types made me realized
that all these
different family's will sometimes require
special attention, and as a teacher i will be willing to help, if i ever
encounter one of these situation.
