I’ve seen it where the grandparents are taking a more active role in raising their kid’s children, because if they didn’t, they would have to wait until they are in their 40’s to afford children. So you have the grandparents taking care of their grandchildren while the parents work two jobs each.

Traditional family values in the western world, including the UK, America, and Canada, are centered around the nuclear family. Individuals strive to raise their children to become independent and self-sufficient, without relying heavily on parental support. Men typically seek out partners and start families, while women balance their roles as caregivers and potentially hold part-time jobs.

Inheritance practices vary across different regions and cultures. Southern Europe follows a system where all family members receive an equal share of the inheritance. Similarly, Mexico and countries in Central and South America, influenced by their colonization history, adopt a similar approach to Southern Europe.

The Middle East operates under a patriarchal system, where the father holds complete authority over multiple families residing in the family home. His responsibilities include finding employment for his sons, arranging marriages for them, and even controlling the lives of his daughters. Wives generally occupy the lowest position within this hierarchy.

India displays diversity in family structures. Some regions resemble the Middle East’s patriarchal system, while others feature women playing a more prominent role in family administration, including participating in the decision-making process regarding their sons’ marriages.

Confucianism influences China, Japan, and Korea, emphasizing filial piety, or respect for one’s ancestors. Children are expected to defer to their parents, particularly their fathers. Upon the father’s death, the firstborn typically inherits, while the secondborn might assist in managing the inheritance. Other siblings are usually encouraged to seek their own paths.

Africa, being a vast and diverse continent, exhibits various family dynamics. Muslim-majority areas often resemble the Middle East’s patriarchal system, while Christian areas and other regions have distinct customs. In some less structured African regions, elder males often have multiple wives and numerous sexless men.

These examples highlight the wide range of family units and their corresponding values. Family values typically stem from the customs and traditions inherent in each particular unit. For instance, Confucianism and filial piety emphasize fulfilling one’s obligations toward parents and ancestors. Middle Eastern patriarchy emphasizes deference to the household head and the exertion of control over family members. France’s concept of brotherhood is influenced, in part, by the equal distribution of inheritances. In contrast, some African regions lack structured family systems, often resulting in challenges for women and an increased prevalence of sexual violence.

Northwestern European culture, which extends to much of America, centers around the nuclear family. While extended family members may live nearby, mobility is common, and communities are often formed with strangers to establish social networks. Success or failure typically falls upon the shoulders of men, who are expected to take risks and build a life that will attract a mate. Unlike in many other family units, Western family values include the notion of romantic love between spouses, with a more equal partnership between husbands and wives. Parents bear the responsibility of raising their children and providing them with opportunities to succeed, but once children venture into the world, continued parental support is not expected. Such support would be seen as a failure on the part of both parent and child. Children are highly valued in contemporary society, often considered a luxury since raising them properly can be costly, but they are not typically expected to contribute financially.

However, these family values are currently being challenged. The traditional roles of men as breadwinners and women as caregivers are deemed offensive, and women who desire to be caregivers are often subjected to shame. The notion of a strong parental duty to raise children is being opposed, replaced by the discredited concept of community parenting rooted in Marxism.

For example, the Black Lives Matter movement explicitly aims to dismantle the nuclear family, aligning with other groups with similar objectives. The destruction of the family is considered essential under socialism, as the state assumes the role of a totalitarian regime and replaces the family unit, facilitating the indoctrination of individuals into communist ideology.

In this paradigm, if parents need to continue supporting their adult children, it is viewed not as a failure on the part of the parent or child but as a failure of society. Children are perceived as either a necessary evil or as immoral to have. The concept of a mother and father remaining together opposes the current mainstream orthodoxy. Instead, the prevailing belief shifts the responsibility of supporting children from parents to an ever-expanding state that assumes the role of an omnipotent and omnibenevolent deity to be worshiped.
