25 Least Family-Oriented Countries in the World

3. United Kingdom

British families are relatively and traditionally small, only consisting of parents and children. Some countries or societies, especially in Southeast Asia, have a relationship with their extended family, such as living under the same roof and providing financial support to all cousins, siblings, etc. In recent years, the British family pattern has changed as fewer people are getting married. British people view it as unusual and rare for an extended family of three to four generations to live under the same roof. Additionally, British children live there with their parents until they complete their studies and leave after getting a job. Also, British children are not obligated to care for their aging parents. Thus, the United Kingdom is considered one of the 25 least-oriented countries in the world.
