Is the family becoming obsolete?

The family will never become obsolete, and it shouldn't be allowed to become outmoded no matter how much our lifestyle changes. In today's fast pace environment, many of us easily forget the importance and value of the family. But we always have to keep in mind the impact of our family on each one of us. For the last two decades, women entered the workforce at an unprecedented pace. Companies put more emphasis on merit-based employment systems rather than on the costly traditional lifetime employment system. In such a chaotic environment, the family is united by blood ties and deep affection. It is also something fateful. Personally I'd place greater value on my family than on my company even though work is very important in my life, because your company can replace you but your family will not, and because you can find another company but you cannot find another family. So my answer to this question is that the family is not becoming obsolete at all.
