Family diversity – types of diversity
1. Organisational The way in which family roles are organised – organisational diversity means that
diversity there are variations in family structure, household type, patterns of kinship
network and differences in the division of labour within the home. E.g., there are
the differences between conventional families, one-parent families, and dual-
worker families, in which husband and wife both works. There is an increased
number of reconstituted families in the modern day.
2. Cultural diversity Cultural diversity is the differences in the lifestyles of families between different
ethnic groups and religious beliefs. Ethnic groups have their own subcultures and
to some extent, these different subcultures influence family life. Often there is just
as much diversity between ethnic families as there is within white society. E.g.,
most Asian households are based on nuclear families, however 20% are extended
families (a larger proportion than other groups)
3. Social class Rapoport (1982) suggests that there relationship between husband and wife, and
diversity the way in which children are socialised and disciplined, varies between middle
class and working class families. Critical sociologists argue that both middle class
and working class parents are child-centred, but that material deprivation limits
the capability to parent in working class families. Therefore, the working-class
child’s experience is likely to be less satisfactory than that of the middle class
child.
4. Life-stage / course The family life cycle is the types of families and households an individual is likely to
diversity experience in their life. Life cycle links to when and where we are born, class,
gender, ethnicity and the choices made in our lives.
5. Generational Increased cohabitation rates reflect the decline in stigma attached to sex outside
diversity marriage. In 1989, only 44% of people agreed that “premarital sex is not wrong at
all”; but by 2000, 62% took this view (British Social Attitudes, 2000).
The young are more likely to accept cohabitation: 88% of 18--24 year olds thought
“it is alright for a couple to live together without intending to get married”; but
only 40% of those over 65 agreed (Social Trends 34, 2004).
6. Families of choice Families of choice are based on choice, rather than blood relations or marriage.
For example, groups of friends living together. There has been an apparent growth
in the number of couples who live apart (living apart together).
