Describe two competing views of society’s role in a family life.

What will be an ideal response?


A complete answer should discuss the issue of intervening in the family or not.
Intervention is captured by the doctrine of parens patriae (the state is the ultimate parent of every child). This is the foundation for intervention policies and programs.
On the other hand, non-intervention and individual rights dates back to the Constitution.
How people in power interpret the Constitution can be the determining influence on government policy toward family rights and freedoms.
Conflict often erupts between parents and those individuals who seek to uphold the rights of those parents’ children.
