Role Of Family in Incalculation of Values

Quotes:

“There is nothing called a self-made person. We are made up of thousands of others.” – George Matthew Adams. 

“A person is usually the average of the five closest to him.” – Jim Rohn

Social Institution: A family is a social institution characterised by a bond of common beliefs, religion, customs, culture, language, and a way of life. It carries on the heritage and traditions as legacies from earlier generations to the next generation. For example, the prayer tradition.

  • First School of Value Learning for Children: Families and parents act as the first school of value learning for children. Values such as honesty and truth are passed onto children by them. 
    • For example, parents involve their children in budgeting for groceries, which fosters financial responsibility and honesty.
  • Family Provides an Informal Way of Learning: Love, compassion, self-sacrifice, and the values of sharing and caring develop implicitly within a child.
    • For instance, sharing their lunch boxes with friends develops the spirit of charity and brotherhood in them.

  • Role Model for Children: Parents and family members are role models for children, and they often imitate their actions and behaviour. 
    • For example, if family members treat women equally and respect them, children are likely to do the same in the future.
  • Provide the Necessary Emotional Support: Family members offer caring and counselling to help children overcome negative thoughts.
    • For example, a spouse may offer a comforting hug after a stressful day at work.
    • In the face of financial or health crises, extended family members often come together to provide support.
  • Role of Grandparents in Cultural Transmission: Grandparents preserve family traditions and pass down values and customs. Their life insights complement parental guidance, offering unique perspectives. They also foster intergenerational bonding. 
    • For instance, a child often learns to communicate in her/his regional language because of communication with their grandparents in their native mother tongue.
