In Poland, TV sagas are the most popular programmes that focus the attention of millions of viewers every day. The quantitative and qualitative analysis of seven TV series (M jak miłość, Na dobre i na złe, Barwy szczęścia, Klan, Plebania, Samo życie, Na Wspólnej) leads to the conclusion that the notion of family in TV sagas is one of crucial values and constitutes the central element of the discourse. It is worth adding that particular family models take various positions in the discourse. The most prominent is nuclear family based on marriage. Non-normative family structures, such as mono-parental childless married couples as well as couples cohabiting are not actually stigmatised but usually hold less important place in the structure of the series. The discourse concerning family is limited inasmuch as in the series there are no “classical” family patchworks, polyamorous relationships, or LAT and DINKS relationships. In the series under scrutiny here there appear no transsexual families or lesbian relationships. I managed to identify just one homosexual family made up of gays. It is also significant to add that all the Polish series perpetuate stereotypes of non-normative sexuality and gender.

Ninety married couples in the general population received a structured interview to assess their level of intimacy. The couples also completed self-report questionnaires to assess non-psychotic emotional illness and marital adjustment. High levels of intimacy were associated with marital adjustment. Low ratings of marital intimacy were significantly associated with non-psychotic emotional illness and psychiatric help-seeking. These findings are discussed in relationship to recent studies which explore the role of lack of marital intimacy as a vulnerability fact or in the development of non-psychotic emotional illness. Implications for treatment of non-psychotic emotional illness in married individuals is briefly discussed.

Abstract Does the experience of war necessarily lead to lower fertility and the postponement of starting or enlarging a family? This qualitative analysis verifies the economic and sociological theories of family planning during war. The excellent source material from World War II in Germany allows for an analysis of a large number of ego-documents. The results imply that married couples were aware of the difficult circumstances and dealt with increased infertility, miscarriages and infant mortality. However, they did not let adversity interfere with their generative decisions. The experience of war did not deter people from planning, starting or building a family. It appears that during wartime, children fulfilled important psychological values for their (prospective) parents.

Chapter 3 focuses on relationships among the married couples. The chapter begins by asking, “How do couples who met and married in a matter of days become husbands and wives?” By telling the stories of four couples who develop and share emotional commitment, love, and affection, the chapter shows how emotional relationships can be forged even with strangers through prevalent “heterosexual scripts.” It also pays attention to how marital intimacy is infused with the issue of remittances, which is an inevitable part of international-married couples. In discussing the couples’ gender relations, the husbands’ stories challenge stereotypes of Korean rural masculinity. This chapter shows that Filipina-Korean couples’ relationships can be troubled and challenging, but conjugal intimacy anchors Filipinas’ sense of belonging.

Future Care

Two key components of end-of-life planning are informal planning for future care and end-of-life preferences and formal end-of-life plans via living wills and legal documents. We build on previous work on the institutionalization of marriage and sexual minority discrimination to theorize the dynamics and strategies of heterosexual, gay, and lesbian married couples in informal and formal end-of-life planning. We use qualitative dyadic methods to analyze in-depth interviews with 45 midlife gay, lesbian, and heterosexual married couples (N = 90 spouses). Findings suggest that same-sex spouses devote intensive time and attention to informal planning conversations and formal end-of-life plans, while heterosexual spouses report minimal formal or informal planning. The primary reasons same-sex spouses give for making end-of-life preparations are related to the absence of legal protections and concerns about family interference. These findings raise questions about future end-of-life planning among gay, lesbian, and heterosexual couples given a rapidly shifting legal landscape.Cite as: Thomeer, Mieke Beth, Rachel Donnelly, Corinne Reczek, & Debra Umberson.

This paper concentrates on a happy family in Interfaith Marriage. According to the majority ulama, marriage is a theological activity that couple interfaith marriage will not a happy family. In this paper, I examine the interfaith marriage couple can be a happy family. Specifically, I ask how to concept a happy family according to the interfaith married couples? Further, how to manage family conflict on interfaith marriage for to get a happy family? To analyse a happy family on interfaith marriage couple, I use a qualitative analysis method with three approaches: Islamic law, sociology and psychology context.  I use data collection methods with observation, interviews, and documents. This research argues that religion is not a major factor in a happy family because interfaith marriage can be a happy family. Worries Ulama that interfaith couples cannot be a happy family does not happen. The contribution of this study as the antithesis according to ulama about interfaith marriage, that happiness is not correlated with religion.
