Functions of Families
Talcott Parsons (1959) studied the family in American society. However, his ideas can be applied to families in other societies. He identified two basic and essential functions that all families perform in all societies: primary socialisation and the stabilisation of adult personalities. According to Parsons, in American middle-class families women provided emotional support to their children and their partner. The role of the male was family breadwinner.
