Is joint family a blessing ?

I like to live in a joint family as there are many advantages there.

Yes a joint family is a bless ,because there is safety of everyone. Elders and weak people ,children feel security there. The members of family look after each other properly.

Some time it is a blessing and some time it is a curse. Freedom should not be there when we are in joint family.

Joint family has inbuilt social security and many other benefits. But this has also some negative affects. It is best that a mid way be adopted. Let the nuclear families within the larger joint family live separately but they should cooperate with each other and periodically meet. In this connection please refer to following article: .

Joint family is really a blessing for all the family members.
