Alyssa Teegarden Middle Eastern Family

Family Families in the Middle East are your typical Old-Fashioned values people. The men are the leaders and providers for the family. They work hard and long to earn a living to support their wives and children. The women run the household, making sure the children are fed and the house is tidy for when their husbands return. Marriages are arranged and are based solely on financial security, social status, and child-bearing potentials rather than on love and romance. A successful marriage is one that produces many children, for a marriage is not complete without them in society’s eyes.

Family Cont… Boys are taught at an early age how to make a living for the future and are taught by the neighborhood male figures as well as their fathers and grand-fathers. Girls are taught at home, learning how to cook, clean, and watch over babies. Like boys, the girls are taught by neighborhood figures, such as mothers, aunts, grand-mothers, etc.. Honor is also a huge role in ones’ family life. The reputation of any family member influences the reputation of the entire family. However, women who bring dishonor to their families because of presumed sexual indiscretions are forced to pay a terrible price at the hands of male family members. The problem of “Honor Killings" throughout the Middle East is manifested in the legal safeguards protecting men by granting them special legal exemptions and reduced sentences in cases of conviction.

UN Involvement The primary activities of the Focal Point on the Family are to: Provide substantial services in the areas of family and family policy to United Nations intergovernmental bodies, particularly the General Assembly, Commission for Social Development and the Economic and Social Council. Promote the realization of the objectives of the International Year of the Family. Promote the integration of a family perspective into policy-making at the national, regional and international levels. Exchange expertise and experiences, disseminate information and support networking on family issues. Support family research and diagnostic studies. Encourage and support coordination on family policies and programmes within national governments and within the United Nations system. Provide technical assistance and capacity-building support to developing country governments, at their request, in the area of the family. Liaise and dialogue with Governments, Civil Society and the private sector on family issues.

Resolving Issues I think there is hope for the Middle Eastern family life, just by looking at all of the information I have read. The woman there are starting to mirror women all around the world. They are starting to get out into the work force, marry later in life, and bear maybe one or two children. Although these changes are occurring, their will still be families that stick to tradition and marry their daughters off at an early age, only to start her own family with her arranged husband.
