“Family psychologists begins to count the concept of a family from the moment when a person grows up, separates from parents and begins to live independently,” says Grazhina Budinaite. – Thus, the first stage of the life of the family is the life of a lonely young man. Of course, in Russia, separation for the young generation mainly proceeds with great difficulty, and the reasons for this are both material and moral in nature. At this stage, the need for a young man is a comfortable one -room apartment with a small kitchen. The next step is a couple that begins a life together without starting children. Do we have housing in the market that would meet the needs for such steam, and which live in this mode for a rather long time (3-5 years), spending time together and actively working? The third stage is a continuation with the advent of children. Just at this moment, people begin to break out of town in order to give their children fresh air. Only children grow up, and they need a special infrastructure, because they must develop, go to school, play sports and have an appropriate social environment. In theory, families in which the children have already grown and separated should again be able to change their housing. In most countries, this is what happens, because there is no longer any need to maintain such large areas, pay for electricity and the like. “.
What should be the house so that it has a comfortable living for the family? Ideally, according to Budinite Grazhina, families need a space in which she will be able to spend free time together, and there should also be zones in which family members can retire.
