Document Summary
Ideal family arrangements the traditional family of a married man and woman with at least one biological child. 84% canadians live in some kind of census family. The numbers of non-traditional forms of families are growing most rapidly. Men are expected to have more than one wife polygyny. Women have more than one husband polyandry. To say that the family is the unit in which children are disciplined and their parents are responsible for their material needs is not universally true. Even sexual relationships don"t universally characterize a husband and wife. Endogamy people should marry within their own group. Exogamy people must marry outside their group. In n. a. , most people marry within their social class and racial groups. System of descent the way people trace kinship over generations. Bilateral related to both our mother"s and our father"s side of the family (logical and natural) Only one logical way to reckon descent.
