Topic: What does the term "family values" mean, entail, suggest? | |
---|---|
Many women who include dating and friendship in their objectives often specify that they require a man with "family values" (or similar terminology). Does she mean that a man who dates her must love her relatives? Will she be bringing them along on dates or activities? If a man and woman are compatible and REALLY like each other, is it a deal-killer if they don't care for each other's relatives? |

I think "Family Values" mean how you were raised. Your thoughts and your heart. Has nothing to do with my family, hell I don't like most of them, I would never expect my mate to.

It might be that she has children and would like the man to respect the fact that she has family responsibilities

Wait a minute,
"Family Values" and "Family Orientation" are two seperated things. |

Good point GLG2009. Thank you. I did some research and was surprised how complex the topic can become.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Family_values http://wiki.answers.com/Q/What_is_the_definition_for_family_oriented http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/Family+Values Even staying within "Family Values" there is tremendous variation in meaning � almost to the point that one would need to inquire what the person means. |
