The authors undertake a critical examination of society, asking questions such as, âHow do families really work?â and âWho benefits under the existing arrangements, and who does not?â Their goal is to demystify and demythologize the family by exposing existing myths, stereotypes, and dogmas.\u003c/p\u003e |
