Cards (1)

  • We belonged to one family type — the nuclear family.
    Family life is diverse - we can belong to more than one family type in our lifetime. If we divorce, we may keep in touch with the former in-laws, even if we remarry. Our second or third husband/wife may bring family members into the new family from previous relationships - this creates a new family type: the divorce-extended family.
