My family consist of three members me, Mom and Dad. I am the only child in my family. My family is dual income family, my mom is the one who provide for us. my family is based on Indian Christian culture. Our traditional food is roti and curry, and our special drink is chai (Indian tea), this what we still eat. My dad and mom worked in Saudi Arabia so they make me Arabic food, my favorite middle eastern food is Kabsa dijaj with mutton soup.

My family has some traditional practices, some of those are, we eat our dinner together, we have family prayer together three times a day and one of the interesting that we do is, when a gust come to our home the first thing we do is we give chai (tea) to them.
My family give lots of importance to spiritual believes. As a Christian we strongly believe in god and eternal live. As a tradition of my family every girl kids should know to cook a clean the home and to do laundry. So as daughter I have lots of responsibility. every 2 years me and my family visits our homeland ( India) to visit our relatives.

    In William Shakespeare’s play ‘Romeo and Juliet’ there is alot of conflict particularly in act 3 scene 1. The audience find conflict interesting to watch because it creates drama and tension. Shakespeare uses many dramatic devices to present this; some of these techniques include foreshadowing, puns and irony to add to this effect. Another reason why Shakespeare uses conflict in the play is so that the audience are able to get attached to it and watch the conflict grow. The fact that the scene is set in a public place encourages the characters to show off, the characters do this because they want to show their strength and show people that they are not afraid. The conflict in the play was created by a family ‘feud’, the families included Montague and Capulet. Ever since the feud the families have been fighting ever since, however the conflict later on heightens because ‘star-crossed lovers’ Romeo Capulet and Juliet Montague marry, but this later on turns into a tragedy.…

    My cultural background has also been greatly influenced by my religion and my family’s involvement with religion and God. Worship is a very important part of my family’s culture and it has always been stressed, in my home and the home of my relatives and close friends, that valuing God above all else will make us blessed and keep us safe. Worship is not something that I view as a chore, but rather a defining factor in my family’s life that brings us together and helps keep us close in our faith and love. Our religious affiliation goes back as far as our family line can be traced and the traditions that come with our faith related holidays and events are very special to me.…

    Family traditions are a mixture of people’s attitudes, ideas, and cultures in which a person learns values. Family traditions do help people build characteristics that involve their self and others around them. A person’s family can help make the final result of who or how an individual person turns out, but only if that person chooses to follow these traditions and keep them alive. People are different in many ways but they are also alike in many ways. Families are one of the ways people are alike and the social upbringing one may have had. The traditions in a family are one of the ways people are different. Family traditions are a social and personal identity that everyone develops that belong to a family or a group. The family and all that is inherited helps people become who they are as adults. Also, as individual people they do not have to follow what they were taught while growing up. Some people are considered the black sheep in their family. This is because they do not act and/or believe in the same manor that their family taught them. They go against the cultural norm and do not act or believe the same way they were taught when growing up. People are given values and goals to help them be guided in life, but some do not follow guidance and do or believe the way they feel is in their best…

All religions say, do, and organize traditions in certain ways that are helpful to teach the belief systems to others. There are also critical issues in the study of religion that may occur or have a reason to be questioned.…

    Has your sibling ever run off before and never returned? That predicament is exactly what happened to Georgie Burkhardt in One Came Home. Georgie’s sister, Agatha, was fed up with her family and the small town they lived in, so she disappeared. One Came Home by Amy Timberlake is a superb historical fiction novel about family plights and love. The narrative was somewhat slow at the beginning, but overall, I greatly enjoyed it.…

    There are many different, unique parts within my family culture. My immediate family’s culture does not follow a belief or religion. Instead, my family has rules, habits, activities and other things along those lines that we consider our family culture. One of the most important standards my family lives by is simple manners and rules. Always respect each other, be polite, make sure the work you're responsible for is complete (this could be chores, homework, etc), if you find yourself in an argument or disagreement, work it out. Basically, the usual inner workings of a family. Traditions in my family are fairly simple, but important to us, nonetheless. A few of them are being there to support each other, encouraging each other to do our best, to go above and beyond. For example, my two sisters and I play tennis, and my family make it a top priority to support each of us in our tournaments. Or try harder at everything we do, try our best and improve on what we set our mind to. A standard of my family is to graduate college. Many if not all of my aunts, uncles, cousins, etc have graduated college. Another standard of my family is succeeding. This does not mean if we fail, we are looked down upon. It just means that we have the courage and strength to get back up and try again. To not give up, and to have the mindset that if we keep going, we’ll get it eventually. To succeed by our own standards, no one else’s. My role in my family is simply put, the helper and supporter.…

    Family where everyone loves each other, they can share joy, sadness. Even though the life can change each family member, but family where they most want to remember the most is a family. Family is a team, and each member of the family must help build their family. Members have always cared for each other. If the family has parents always love, take care and give good education for their children, the children grow up to become useful citizens of the society. Having dinner together also contribute to building solidarity among members. Families would never leaving the family members, people will come together to fix their own house, traveling together, ready to help if the members have difficulty. As in "chicken with Plums" mother ready to take all home furnishings to sell only to help her son escape from prison, because her son is the most precious in the world, there is no replaceable her son. Today, as society developed, each family member will have little chance to meet each other, they have to go to work and children to school, they met only a few short hours each day, so weekend is an opportunity for all members of the family gathered together, members will come together to cook a family meal, eating together, have fun, to build solidarity. “This is not the place where people ruthlessly compete with each other but where they work for each other.” here is a very interesting statement from the family "Thanks giving", as a group we always live for a group, all members must care for each other, a family survive because of everyone in the family loves each other, ready to help each other, as if it no longer, the family members do not need help from other people, they want to do everything alone to…
