My family are not at home – Living apart together

• Two concepts of family– Familia de origen o familia propia? Parents/siblings or

children/spouse?– Who do you consider the most important members of your

family? List three in order of importance.

• Family policy assumes nuclear family in a household– But sharing resources may be nuclear, extended, dispersed– Household Surveys do not measure the family as we know it

• Questions to include a large-scale survey / census– Which members of your family do you help / do you care

for / support financially?– For each: are they resident with you, and What do you

receive in return?– Which of your parents / siblings / children / partner are alive

and where do they live?
