A family is where we get our needs fulfilled, such as love, security, belonging needs. People living in a family get many health benefits from people who don’t have a family. On the right side, each family member can share their issues and care for each other.

Kids can enjoy love and care for their parents. They could get all their necessary benefits and enjoy times with families. They can get their needs, wants to be fulfilled.

Home is where our family begins. Its the place where we learn about relationships. It’s the best place where kids are being brought up.
