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?
