Modern civilization with its industrialization has brought many changes to Christian family life, where modernization also means a shift from an agrarian society to an industrial society. This development brings about changes that have a direct impact on family life, both in the patterns and roles of the Christian family, as well as in attitudes and views of the values that are the foundation of family life. The article aims to discover the meaning of the mutuality of the Christian family based on Colossians 3: 18-21. In achieving these objectives, this study uses descriptive qualitative methods. The conclusion is that the formation of a family on earth began when Allah created and blessed husband, wife, and child as a complete and perfect family in God's sight with love, obedience, respect, and responsibility.   Peradaban modern dengan industrialisasinya telah membawa banyak perubahan bagi kehidupan keluarga Kristen, dimana modernisasi juga berarti pergeseran dari masyarakat agraris ke masyarakat industri. Perkembangan ini membawa perubahan yang mempunyai dampak langsung bagi kehidupan keluarga, baik dalam pola dan peranan keluarga Kristen, maupun dalam sikap dan pandangan terhadap nilai-nilai yang menjadi sendi kehidupan keluarga. Artikel memiliki maksud untuk menemukan makna mutualitas keluarga Kristen berdasarkan Kolose 3:18-21. Dalam mencapai tujuan tersebut penelitian ini menggunakan metode kualitatif deskriptif. Hasilnya adalah pembentukan keluarga di muka bumi dimulai ketika Allah menciptakan dan memberkati suami, istri, dan anak sebagai keluarga yang lengkap dan sempurna dalam pandangan Allah dengan kasih, ketaatan, menghormati, dan bertanggung jawab.

This study investigated the reasons parents of kindergarten children selected the attendance option of either full days or half-days for their child/ren. Three-hundred-and-thirty-two kindergarten parents from 30 schools across three Tasmanian school districts were participants in this study. Postal surveys were employed to gather data investigating the reasons behind parents' selection of either full-day or half-day attendance. Forty-nine percent of responses from ‘full-day parents’ (n=208) offered child-based reasons (including child's readiness for full days, preparation for Prep grade the following year, childcare issues, and quality of the learning program) for their selection. However, 94 per cent of parents of ‘half-day students’ (n=114) cited child-based reasons (including frequency of attendance, child's age, readiness for half-days, and quality of the learning program) for their decision. Few ‘half-day parents’ (4.3%) cited family-based reasons, while 50.6 per cent of ‘full-day parents’ cited these reasons (including work commitments, childcare convenience, transport issues and home location). Hence, while a majority of ‘half-day parents’ made their choice for child-based reasons, these results indicate that full-day kindergartens serve at least two functions: providing a service that supports an aspect of family life plus educating the kindergarten child.

The problems discussed in this study are the types of conceptual metaphors, namely (1) structural metaphors, (2) orientational metaphors, (3) metaphors. The theory used is the conceptual metaphor from Lakoff & Johnson (2003) as the main theory and the image scheme from Cruse & Croft (2004) theory. The data is taken from the Gontor magazine with the theme of "rihlah" (traveling). Based on the analysis conducted, 11 conceptual metaphor data were found, with the following details: seven structural metaphors are the concepts of the meaning of decoration, protection, limb, the taste of food, expenditure, nature, and fame; one orientational metaphor with the concept of the meaning of quality; and three ontological metaphors with the concept of well-known meaning, heredity, and quality of goods. The image schemes found were one power/control scheme, two existence/process schemes, two identity/conformity schemes, and six existence/object schemes.

Background: The population of Pakistan has increased from 34.0 million in 1951 to 220 million in 2020 making it the 6th most populous country. Vasectomy is the least accepted contraceptive method in Pakistan. The objective of the study was to explore the perception and motivation of males towards vasectomy. Methods: This qualitative study with phenomenology design was conducted at the Family Planning Center of JPMC, Karachi. The ultimate sample size was five. Males of age > 30 years, having at least one alive child were included. Informed consent was taken. Open-ended questions regarding concepts of family planning (vasectomy) religious and its social implications were asked. The interviews were transcribed and double-checked. Coding of the data was done and themes and subthemes were generated. Results: The age ranged from 32 to 45 years. Only one participant was a graduate. The participants were well motivated for vasectomy having a clear concept of its impact on family life and quality of the sexual relationship. With an idea of two children (a boy and a girl); they were of the view that more children will compromise their capability of giving children a better life. They believed vasectomy is forbidden in religion, yet they opt for it keeping the comfort of children upfront. They believed that male vasectomy is a better option than female tubal ligation. Conclusions: Vasectomy was regarded as a benign procedure and well accepted by the study participants. They were clear about its impact on life.

Abstract. Human society has changed greatly over the past centuries and this process of “modernization” has profoundly affected the lives of individuals; currently we live quite different lives from those our forefathers lived only five generations ago. There are differences of opinion as to whether we live better now than before, and consequently there is also disagreement as to whether we should continue modernizing or rather try to slow the process down. Quality of life in a society can be measured by how long and happy its inhabitants live. Using these indicators I assessed whether societal modernization has made life better or worse. First, I examined some findings from present day survey research. I started with a cross-sectional analysis of 90 nations and found that people live longer and happier in today's most modern societies. Second, I examined trends in 10 modern nations over the last 30 years and found that happiness and longevity have increased in most cases. Third, I considered the long-term and review findings from historical and comparative anthropology, which show that we lived better in the early hunter-gatherer society than in the later agrarian society. Together these data suggest that societal evolution has worked out differently for the quality of human life, first negatively, in the change from a hunter-gatherer existence to agriculture, and next positively, in the more recent transformation from an agrarian to an industrial society. We live now longer and happier than ever before.

The article is about the role of the family in the education and formation of children and, especially, in the life and development of autistic children. It describes the problems their family is facing and the need for counseling to parents with autistic children. The reaction to finding the diagnosis of autism varies from one family to another and may encounter a large variety: from disbelief, anger, guilt, helplessness, devastation, surprise, or even rejection of the child, to understanding and relief when finally the parents have an explanation for their child behaviors. Early intervention is important in psychological sustaining of the parent, as parent involvement in the recovery of the child with autism has a determinant role in his development and in ensuring a high quality of life of the child and the life of the hole family. The response to a child's autism diagnosis varies from one family to another. The family goes through a variety of disbelief, anger, guilt, helplessness, devastation, surprise, or even rejection of the child, to understanding and relief. Early intervention is very important in the psychological support of the parent. Because any change disturbs the family equilibrium. A diagnosis of autism changes not only the life of the diagnosed child, but also the life of family members. All the resources are focused on the need of the child. Although each parent is different, after diagnosing the child with autism, all parents are overwhelmed by confusion, shock and denial. Parents' feelings can be influenced by how their children's situation affects different aspects of life - it has an impact on service, on social life and all their personal life. If we look at the family as a system and when a disturbing factor appears, all parts of the system are affected. The involvement of parents in the recovery of the child with autism has a decisive role in its development and in ensuring a high quality of child's life and family life.

This article presents findings from research into how young people growing up in foster care in the UK manage the relationships in their social networks and gain access to social capital. It is a concept that highlights the value of relationships and is relevant to young people in care as they have usually experienced disruptions to their social and family life. Qualitative methods were used and the findings show that despite experiencing disruption to their social networks, the young people demonstrated that they were able to maintain access to their social capital. They achieved this in two ways. Firstly, they preserved their relationships, often through what can be seen as ordinary practices but in the extraordinary context of being in foster care. Secondly, they engaged in creative practices of memorialisation to preserve relationships that had ended or had been significantly impaired due to their experience of separation and movement. The article highlights implications for policy and practice, including the need to recognise the value of young people’s personal possessions. Furthermore, it stresses the need to support them to maintain their relationships across their networks as this facilitates their access to social capital.
