The Perfect Family

What is the perfect family? I consider it to be one that is loving,caring, and raise their children to the best of their ability. Many people in the western society believe the nuclear family to be the perfect family. One with a mother, father and two to three children. In the clip above You will see a loving family. This family cares for their children in a loving manner. They have united their love in marriage, therfore they have dedicate their lives to one another. They go on hiking trips with their children and their children also participate in extra curricular activities.  I am shamed to admitt that my children have never been hiking. At the time me and my spouse are co-habitating. Although we are engaged ,we still have not dedicated ourselves to eachother legally or in front of god. Yet, my relationship is look upon more beificial to my children then the family in the clip above.WHY?  This couple has done everything right according to western society with the exception of falling in love with a person of the same sex. Should that one attribution place their  family apart from mine. Families have been changing throughout the decades at one time blacks and whites were'nt allowed to marry it was the law. Remember JIM CROW. At one time women stayed home and cook and cleaned and the huband was the bread winner and made all the decisions. Trust me alot of these "New" millinium women would say heck no to that. The norm for western society is chaning all the time. Lets hope that western society is open- minded enough to except the perfect family.
