YEREVAN. - The concept of a family is undergoing crisis in Armenia,
which is reflected more vividly in socially vulnerable families,
head of the International Association of Lawyers and Psychologists,
expert Khachatur Marozyan said at a press conference on Tuesday.
According to him, part of the Armenian traditional families, where man
is the head of the family, stops being so when the man loses his job,
thus his image for encouraging children is damaged.
As a result, woman earns for living, which brings forth her
self-establishment, gradually leading to the leadership in the family.
And all these factors partly bring forth to the collapse of the family,
adds the expert.
Among other degrading points of the family is globalization,
introduction of European values, which are foreign to Armenian
families, as well as lack of minimal literacy on sexual life, which
leads to divorces. Couples in the family are unable to discuss even
trivial sexual problems, let alone global ones.
To support such families and the young generation Marozyan claims
that their association would submit to the government "Strategy of
Family Development."
