In my country there are a lot of different things from the family in UK.
In china many areas people like keeping the national family, in fact the village families still kept the family like 50 years ago, young guy lived with the old people, young guy have the responsible to look after the old people. The relationship between the young people and old people are very important, sometime the parents still look after the young guy when the 18, usually they help their children paid the wedding money, like buying the house, anything, it’s different between UK
The female have the stronger position than before, and it’s very important for a family, before that, women just can stayed at home, and looks after the children, do the housework. They have no job, no achievement, and go to school still is a very difficult things for a formal family. Men support all of the things, the women’s life in men hands. About the wedding they also have the complete freedom, they didn’t need to follow their husband.
But now most of things have been chanced, but we still keep some national things, but the female have been respected, nearly they can do every thing like the men, but some of they like following the nation, husband, children, and the family are their centre, but most of them go to work, achieve their dream, in my country many women who have the important position in society. They were to the government officers, business people, etc.
Conclusion, the family in my country have got big chance, it’s more and more nearly the western country, and most of the people want to get the freedom life.

Hi Chen
Thank you for writing on your blog about symmetrical families.
What do you mean by 'national' family?
I believe many young people are taken care of by their parents in the UK. It is particularly true of young people trying to buy a house in the UK. Many people are forced to live at home in order to save money to buy a house. See the link below.

As you say, there have been many changes to the family. This seems to be true all over the world in developing countries.
