Nowadays people do not pay much attention to family. They prefer a successful career to a lovely family. Is family still important? Can people live without it? In my opinion, family is the most valuable thing that people have. Family members support each other. For some reason, a person can feel unconfident or depressed. Relatives will be there for him/her to help to get through hard times. They respect each other's decisions and forgive all flaws. That is why, family is the most important institution.
