Is it good to be part of an

extended family?
All of us live in different types of families.
Some people think that it is better to live in a
nuclear family (parents and children only).
Someone prefers to living in an extended family
with grandparents and all relative has a lot of
benefits. In my opinion, living in an extended
family can be difficult, but interesting.
First of all, living in a large family has some
disadvantages. For example, you have less free
time and it is difficult to have a piece of quiet. Your
sisters and brothers can make a mess in your
room; your relatives can borrow your things
without asking.
On the other hand, you always have a
company. As a result, you never feel lonely and you
always have someone to talk to. Your family can
help you to solve problems.
However, different opinions and the
generation gap can cause miss understanding and
conflicts.
To sum up, living in an extended family can
have different sides. I think, living in a nuclear
family is better than living in an extended family.
Also, maybe it is an interesting experience to live in
a big family.
