The shift from joint to nuclear families is driven by urbanization, employment opportunities, and changing attitudes towards independence. Rapid urbanization and limited housing space in urban areas make nuclear families more practical, while job opportunities often require individuals to relocate, forming nuclear households away from extended family members. Additionally, evolving gender roles and a desire for autonomy contribute to the preference for nuclear families, where couples can make decisions independently. Despite this trend, modern technology allows individuals to stay connected with extended family members, maintaining social bonds even in nuclear family setups.
