Families are considered the fundamental units of any society. All families all over the world are subjected to many changes following the many dynamic processes occurring, which encourage society to accept new things and ideas. The process which results in changes within families includes culture loss which results from adopting new cultural methods from other families, technological inventions which involve new sources of energy, new machines, advanced transportation means, and frivolous things like dressing styles and other fashion. However, there are those, which are common. The most notable changes in families include changes in the dress fashions, ways of living, and a drastic change in birth rate, among others. Lifestyles of families are changing significantly while family ties are gradually losing their strength. The original extended family organization is slowly being replaced by nuclear families consisting of children and parents only. Dobson (2000) states, “Children’s discipline, which should be a responsibility of all society members, now belongs to parents only” (p.32). Globalization stands out as the root cause of these changes. Many of these family changes have come because of the result of globalization, which has occurred mainly due to the sophisticated technology available in the current world. Joseph (2003) asserts, “…globalization has brought both positive and negative changes in the families” (p.43). For instance, television has reduced the interaction time between families as most family members spend their time watching television. It has also exposed the family members mostly children to new information and systems making them grow at a fast rate becoming more curious about learning new things. Internet and many telecommunication means have made the lives of family members easy by providing easy communication methods that connect all the family members around the world. There exist ways through which cultures resist social changes. Cultures Resist Social Change The processes through which cultures resist social changes include both habits and the combination of some cultural traits. Despite the high rate of globalization, many cultures can resist many social changes by sticking to their strong cultural practices and beliefs. The older people in the society are very reluctant to change and do not want to replace or let go of even a single trait of their culture. Culture also uses habitual behaviors, which aids in providing emotional security to all members despite the threatening changes occurring in the current world. Religion is also used by many cultures as a way of retaining traditional ways through providing strong moral support and moral justifications. For instance, countries guided by Islamic law like Afghanistan, Iran, Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, to quote a few, have been able to retain their cultural practices despite the many globalization challenges. They strictly stick to the laws and beliefs. African families to are able to maintain most of their traditional customs and beliefs especially in marriages, lifestyles, traditional foods, African festivals and ceremonies, and the inheritance of family properties.
