I sat there and wondered‚ should I tell the truth and reveal the fact that my family doesn’t have any traditions? Should I make one up and fake my way through the entire thing just to get a good grade? Should I take someone else’s family tradition and call it my own?

Marriage and family I agreed the family is one of society’s most basic and important institutions; therefore‚ studying the family is integral to understanding the larger society in which we live.
