family life in Sweden

A family stands for mother,father and kids. In my country parents should be married (especially if your a strong Catholic believer).  Here in Sweden even in other part of EU country family lives are different. A mother or father can live together in one house even they are not married. They called it "sambo"in Swedish meaning "live in together" with kids or no kids. The other relationship called "särbo"meaning parents of the child not living together(they are not divorse either) but they choose to live separately but they have special relationship. Another  type is what Swedish called it "kärnfamilj"nuclear family meaning both partner(maybe divorse) have early kids in other relationship then live in together with the both kids. I don't know how it works but lot of them live happy life in one happy home.

Divorse is not big issue here,open to every one who think that they feel no more  love to his/her partner any more. Single mother is common  as well,they can get help from social welfare(services). Wanted to be pregnant without having contact with guys is even possible through (sperm) donation.

When young adults, have a boyfriend/girlfriend it's not hard for them to introduced to their respective parents (aside from immigrants parents who have strong culture background). Most of them move in together as "live in "partner in the age of 18. The parents,cannot controlled their life since they are in 18 years old or maybe above.

Do whatever they want to do with their life. This is what I observe to a lot of young adults here,going to disco,drinking with friends or with boyfriend/girlfriend. Get some job,what they earn is what they keep it to themeselves. No obligation to give to their parents. Neither not their duty to help their brothers and sisters to send college.

I don't know what to say but there are  lot of different things here,that both good and bad. This is not easy to say negative things about their living styles. Every situation have advantage and disadvantage so it's up to us how we judge them. Nothing is perfect anyway.
