Family Nowerdays there are more patchworkfamilies and singel parent households than traditonal families, in Germany. But some things will always stay the same for example the mother or the father goes to work, or both of them. In every case the children attend school. Usually german families have two children.

Example of a typical family I have a little brother and we live together with our parents in a house. Both of my parents go to work. We also have pets for example a dog, a cat, rabitts and a horse. Everyone in my family likes doing sports. Christina Langer 10m2
