Question 10:
Read the passage given-below and answer the questions that follow:
The culture of nuclear families is in fashion. Parents are often heard complaining about the
difficulties in bringing up children these days. Too much of freedom in demand, too much
independence; over night parties; excessive extravagance, splurging pocket money; no time
for studies and family all this is a common cry of such families. Aren’t parents, themselves,
responsible for this pitiful state ? The basic need of a growing youth is the family, love,
attention and bonding along with moral values. One should not forget that ‘charity begins at
home’. Independence and individuality both need to be respected, in order to maintain the
sanctity of family. Children, today are to be handled with tact in order to bridge the ever
widening generation gap. Only the reasonable demands need to be fulfilled, as there are too
many expenses to be met and top many social obligations to be taken care of by the
parents. Our forefathers lived happily in joint families. Children loved to live with their
cousins, learnt to adjust within means. There was perfect harmony between the generations.
There never existed the concept of old-age homes. There was deep respect for the family
elders and love, care and concern for the youngsters. Even the minor family differences
were solved amicably.
