Family is the basic unit of the society. But not all families are alike. They differ in the number of members or size, mutual relations, and the different kinds of work they do and their responsibilities. The members of the family share their food and other facilities.
They live together and work together and follow certain rituals. Families are part of a large chain that is referred to as kinfolk. Relations in the family are natural and based on blood. In some communities, cousins are considered to be related by blood. But some others don’t think so.
