A cosmopolitan family, like a cosmopolite, looks toward people,activities, and intersts that range far beyond the confines of their neighbourhood or town. Their friends, jobs, and schools are scattered; they may move fr equently for work or other reasons.
Locals on the other hand, are rooted. Their family history in the same place may go back generations. Their friends, schools, and jobs are near at hand. Often their work life is not only near home but also dependent on a local network of acquaintances. Locals develop specific, traditional routines and routs for shopping, visiting, recreation. Cosmopolitan families have less well-fixed, more exploratory habits.
*Each pattern, local and cosmopolitan, has its characteristic blind spots and highlights.
*In Dr.Reiss's theory, families share a group self, which in turn shapes their lives. Shared family experiences Reiss says, 'guide and shape the way families approach specific problems."This shared construing is typically in the background, a buried structure which guide family life.
*The family, when it works as an integral group,is a sort of consensual mind. In this respect it takes on the same tasks as we have seen in the individual mind: it gathers information, interprets it, distributes it.
*The families seem to have an important shared illusion about themselves.
