CRISIS IN THE FAMILY SYSTEM
In recent decades, the family institution has undergone major modifications, in relation to the emergence of new social phenomena and new patterns of behavior. Not all of these changes have directly caused the increase in marital separation but are mentioned here to give a comprehensive picture of the current social context. On the evolution and changing family structures have played a number of phenomena, such as:
• a gradual increase in average income and economic resources available to families;
· the reduction in births. It notes a steep decline in births. Italy is one of the countries with the lowest birth rate. Are constantly growing families with one child and increasingly rare families with three or more children. In other countries, however, you experience the highest birth rates and a simultaneous increase of the partitions
• The delay in the transition to adult life, which affects the timing of family formation, moving in time because they are professional subject to the affirmation, stability income, safety of the house. There is now an increasingly long stay of children in the family home, aimed at making the individual's life project or linked to difficulties in achieving independence economic or in finding housing. 40% of those aged between 25 and 34 still live at home. In Veneto the young males in the family are in very high percentage, even 74%;
· the empowerment of women, with a new role of women in relation to employment, life and culture,
· Increased opportunities for travel and social contacts ;
· the emergence of a highly individualistic mentality, which tends to exacerbate the needs of individuals at the expense of team goals. Almost all of the media (TV, cinema, newspapers) offer models for personal development focused on singolo.Queste and other social trends have led to greater diversification in family types, just think of the increasing number of singles, mostly males, single-parent families , mostly women with children, families reconstructed. At the same time the same phenomena have also led to growing family instability: Fifteen years ago in Italy a marriage is dissolved every ten, one every four hours, in northern Italy a marriage falls apart in three, one in every two Anglo-Saxon countries. The marital instability and, in addition to changing family structure and the course of life of those directly and indirectly involved, also causes changes in the housing and financial situation, with often resulting from such problems lead to forms of economic impoverishment and vulnerability

On the evolution and changing family structures have played a number of phenomena, such as:
• a gradual increase in average income and economic resources available to families;
· the reduction in births. Si rileva un vertiginoso calo delle nascite. L’Italia è uno dei paesi con la natalità più bassa. Sono in costante aumento le famiglie con un solo figlio e sempre più rare le famiglie con tre o più figli. In altre nazioni comunque si riscontrano tassi di natalità più alti e un contemporaneo aumento delle separazioni;
· il ritardo nel passaggio alla vita adulta, che incide nei tempi di formazione della famiglia, spostandoli nel tempo poiché vengono subordinati all’affermazione professionale, alla stabilità del reddito, alla sicurezza dell’abitazione. Vi è oggi una permanenza sempre più lunga dei figli nella casa dei genitori, finalizzata alla realizzazione del progetto di vita individuale or linked to difficulties in achieving economic independence, or in finding housing. 40% of those aged between 25 and 34 still live at home. In Veneto the young males in the family are in very high percentage, even 74%;

The marital instability and, in addition to changing family structure and the course of life of those directly and indirectly involved, also causes changes in the residential and financial situation, with consequences often as problems to lead to forms of economic impoverishment and vulnerability
This is not only in Italy, but in any industrialized country, the family is in crisis and if it can still fulfill its economic function, same can not be said of its role in training their children, which is currently delegated exclusively to the school. In recent years, the family is less cohesive than last time. This does not mean that the family was not the first source of conflict and irreconcilable contrasts. E 'likely to be due to the confusion of roles (fathers who are forced to make Mummy and when the children are teenagers to make friends of their children), the overlap of roles. What's more the outside world is so competitive and frustrating, often family members fail to give adequate support to each other psychological and emotional level. Each spouse burden on already feels the weight of its labor problems, which often can not bear the problems of the working partner. In this climate, increased divorce, but also the second marriage is often the family situation becomes more complicated. It becomes a tangle of complex relationships, which can sometimes lead to mutual indifference. It 'difficult for a child to accept another father or another madre.Gli anthropologists of the last century had been delusional when believed that our society was superior to those so-called primitive for our monogamy and that we could analyze certain tribes a diachronic standpoint. We are monogamous and is partly the case also said formally. In practice at present Italic families have more problems of families resulting from polygamy. The marriage is in crisis, yet it is necessary for the perpetuation of the species and the exogamy. For all these reasons, in Italy are increasing very singles. In peasant societies, where there was division of labor between the sexes, the bachelor or spinster were considered negative by all, because his wife plays a role in domestic and it was the angel of the hearth and children accounted for labor camps. But today more and more people decide to live as a single by choice and not because he refused a second time sex. I do not know whether it is better not to assume the responsibility of forming a family or a family disaster and misery generate other than its own.
