Both the options have their own benefits and issues...

My take is that :

Working class people have problems settling down in an Joint Family...
Business class families have problem settling down in nuclear family...


ps - Vishnu, my dear friend, what happened to you raat-o-raat ???

Living in a joint family is something that depends on how well you can get along with someone and how good the other person if with you and the others in the family. There are advantages of being in a joint family, which include the fact that there is less household expenditure, others can help out when in need.
The disadvantages which i see in a joint family are that you don't have as much privacy and their may be bickering in the house!

Living nuclear is also good as you get your own privacy, live life as you want without any problems. On the other hand the disadvantage is that when in need for urgent help its not easily there and the other main disadvantages household expenses increase.
Preeti has said what ever I wanted to say...Both has its advantages & disadvantages.In Joint Family its all about loving "living together".I am a part of a joint family.The members in my family are My dad & mom,my sis,my uncle (my dad's younger brother), my aunt, & my 2 cousins (bro & sis). Totally 8 of us.There has been no problem. Each of us has enjoyed being together...

As preeti was saying there is not much privacy in the joint family.Wanted to know what it means by privacy ?

Nuclear families offer peace of mind... whenever there will b an increase in family members, an increase in misunderstandings will follow,

a joint family will most probably give rise to many nuclear families sooner or later when members decide to leave because of petty fights now n again...

so why not just give every1 space and leave without first having to deal with these issues which gives way for rifts between relations?

You have a very valid point StarryKnight... Moreover the girl who comes in the family might not adjust with her in-laws... or vice-versa... Ego issues may arise on both sides... Whole lotta tension for the boy! lol

Ya the boy suffers a lot in such cases... hehe... who else will... and he gets in a very sticky situation cause of this all...

Nuclear families preserve relations... we shud all learn to have space and give space to others, no use sticking to each others and messing it all up finally..

Thats not true, as there are educated and modern people who are fine living in a joint family and enjoying the fact of being in a joint family, so i can not agree with you on that. It may be that you are giving your experiences, but you got to remember its not always the same with everyone! With the working families it works out better to be in a joint family, so no one really gets in your way and you have your own time and space!

Its not necessary that there will be fights, misunderstandings happen in every relationship even if you live in a nuclear family, so it doesn't justify what you said! And when there is a joint family you automatically adjust and there are many people who are happy in their joint families, they have their own space, celebrate festivals together and have no problems. I can not say that they dont have arguments or anything, cause any family which doesn't is not normal then!
