Societal and cultural factors such as unrealistic portrayals of ideal families in media, societal stigma around non-traditional family structures, and cultural norms emphasizing family unity can contribute to the perception of "broken" or "small" families. These biases can be addressed through promoting diverse family representations in media, fostering acceptance and understanding of different family dynamics, and providing support and resources for families facing challenges. Education, advocacy, and community initiatives can help challenge stereotypes and promote inclusivity in defining what constitutes a family.
