Family Established After Marriage
View Complete Answer & Explanation
Question (English)
The family which one sets up after marriage is called:
- Family of procreation ✓ Correct
- Primary family
- Nuclear family
- Family of orientation
Explanation:
Correct Answer: Family of procreation
The family that one sets up after marriage — comprising oneself, one's spouse, and one's own children — is called the Family of Procreation.
Contrast with Family of Orientation
- Family of Orientation (= Family of Origin): The family you are born into — parents, siblings.
- Family of Procreation: The family you create after marriage — spouse and children.
A person is simultaneously a member of both families — they belong to their family of orientation as a child and create their family of procreation as a parent.
