Firstly every woman wants separate house where she will be the master and other family member should obey her. This could not be easily possible in joint family. That’s why most of the women prefer to live in separate house with their children and husband.
Secondly these days most of the women are career oriented and prefer to do job. Working women find difficult to prepare food for so many people in the family. So to avoid troublesome maintenance of kitchen for large number of people, prefer to live in nuclear family to fulfill her carrier.
Thirdly no educated women can tolerate the adverse remarks passed by the sister in-law and mother in-law.
Why joint family?
But if we learn to compromise a little and try to be supportive, a joint family can be better option compared to nuclear family. A harmonic joint family provides good support both in terms of emotion and finance. In joint family all responsibility is shared by all members equally. Hence its better option to stay in joint family where both partners have to work due to rising cost of living. Children are brought up easily under good guidance of the grandparents and old people are taken care of easily too. Working parents get enough time for them. Even children also develop habit of sharing and helping each other.
Joint family is very beneficial specially for working womens.
