I have already answered the question: “What is the advantage of a nuclear family?” - I guess the same answer addresses your question too.
A nuclear family system is a family structure that consists of a couple living with their children. This is quite different from an extended family system, in which the household may include other family members, such as grandparents, aunts and uncles, cousins and so on. There are several advantages of living as a nuclear family.
Parents in a nuclear household are more likely to have a higher consistency with raising their children - meaning teaching discipline and appropriate behavior. Children receive consistent messages about behavioral expectations. Nuclear families have more daily routines, like eating dinner together, and spending more time together, adding to consistency.
Nuclear families play an important role in the development of personality of individuals. Children are more close to the parents and can have more free and frank discussion about their problems with parents which helps for the better development of their personality. This is one way of turning out good citizens.The lady of the house gets enough time to look after her children. She also gets time to plan and manage her house independently, according to her own idea. There is no interference of elders. Her husband can also devote more attention to the wife in nuclear family in discussing their plans for the future, the children's' education, a nuclear family - which is an immediate family - there can be no misunderstanding of any sort, and they enjoy a harmonious atmosphere.All enjoy independent lives and can be engaged in any economic activities to supplement family income.
The will and desires of children are favourably considered and are given proper weight. Typically, all members of a nuclear family are emotionally secure as there is no one else to act superior to the others, creating any complex. All are given equal weightage.These days, it is common for both the parents to work and earn money. This provides better financial stability for the household, creating a larger cash availability for the basic family needs of housing, food and healthcare. The children can afford to take up extra-curricular activities like music, sports, etc. and such opportunities allow them to flourish socially and develop a higher level of self confidence.
One important thing the parents need to remember is that home and family comes first and foremost in their lives, and then only comes the question of earning extra money. The parents need to make clear demarcation between the two and spend quality time with the children. There are many cases where the mother gives up a lucritive job and stays home when the children reach school going age.
