Hi
I have to do this question for homework (due 24th February ) and i'm stuck. It's a 12 mark essay about family life. I would be really grateful if someone could help me or even write it

The question:

Describe and explain how two of the following factors have influenced family life in the UK since 1900:

. The media
. Social class
. Religious beliefs
. Government policy and the law

Use your own studies to answer

Thank you for any help and I will give ten points to the best answer

I'm not going to write your essay for you, seeing as it's 12 marks I assume your teacher would rather know if you're capable of writing that much, and to a high quality. I can, however, provide you with a bit of help on the media factor. Whether it'll be much help to you, I don't know. But here we go:

Media has influenced family life massively since 1900s, the introduction of televisions etc, mean it's a lot easier for news to get through. Controversial news can cause disputes among family members, right? The media update has enhanced this, and made it a lot easier for families to argue over whether someone should, for example, be sentenced to jail or whatever. Computers are a form of media as is the internet, and in this age, nearly every household has an internet connection. Internet can cause families to be torn, with perhaps the teens resulting to sitting in their rooms, just on the internet everyday, and only really socialising through social networks, or texting. Phones as well, they've become a bit destructive of family life, you could be sitting at the table, enjoying a family meal, but at least one of the children would be incessantly on their phone, or texting, it's disruptive, right?
