We all misses the joint-family now days,the joint family used to be made up of numerous members all together,the great great grand-parents,then their children,then the children's children,and like wise and so on....those were the days where actual and proper growth and upbringing was possible!!!! The very younger member used to have the benefit of love/caring as well as learning from the whole of the joint family,the child from the very beginning learns the positives of how to share,interacting with different family members in a very very cordial atmosphere,and there by the small child becomes an adult with full of vigor,just because he/she comes from the Joint-Family.While on the other hand the person who comes from the nuclear family lacks lots of eminent ingredient of the life and quite incomplete as compared to the former..........

It is the norm of India and in fact was also the norm of other culture as well if one goes back to the history,today according we have different needs and therefore the people have changed their attitude towards the arrange marriage as well as to the joint family system. All the system or culture have its ills as well as the positives but one should not forget the past because of that: we are here,and just because we present(last two two-three generations) Indians were very ignorant of the past are now presently fall prey to the different culture,not at all concerned yet,the country is divided the true Indian culture been abducted or eroded ....... The notorious people are on the chair all of whom are mostly not Indians came from the neighboring countries, are reaping the benefit of our country and amassing hugh amount of wealth or even siphoning the wealth out of the country where the politician as well the culprits are involved so it does not matter what happens to the country or its sovereignty or its people(Instead they are providing the ration card even the land to m.....y group without any verification very easily and lavishly as if they are the owner of the land,and taking the credits,on the world arena,if possible in the coming days these nexus between the these local people who have descended as well the politician will convert this country into the neighboring nations capital,while all the rules are applicable to the poor.... Indians)the country have seen the partitions previously and in very soon another partitions will take place.
