2. Differentiate the Alarmist and Reasuring Views about the family from the
democratic view.
The alarmist view tends to focus on the negative aspects of family life where the
family is in a state of crisis emphasizing problems such as divorce rates, child
abuse, domestic violence, and other challenges that families face. This view
emphasizes family as a source of social problems.
On the other hand, the reassuring view of the family emphasizes the positive
aspects of family life, such as the emotional support and care that family members
provide to one another. Here in reassuring view, it can be seen that the family is a
source of social strength, resilience and adaptability of the family. This perspective
demonstrates that families can adapt to changing social and economic conditions,
and that diverse family forms can be just as effective as traditional families.
