Hi Tony & Dan,
I just wanted to write you a quick note to say thank-you for working so hard to sell my house. I cant believe how fast it went once you were on board!. You always kept in contact to keep me in the loop which was much appreciated during this stressful time. I will whole-heartedly recommend you to anyone interested in buying or selling a home, you're a great team…..you have really simplified my life!
Thanks again and all the best
Leo & Yvonne

In A Letter Addressed to the Broker of Record…..
I am writing this letter to inform you of the wonderful service my husband and I received from two of your associates, Dan Vodenicar and Tony Worsfold.
We listed our rental property in Pembroke with your company on August 12th and it was sold on September 2nd.
The service and professionalism these two men showed us was in our eyes more than any other company has done for us in the past. We had tried to sell our property in previous years with no luck so we had resorted to renting it out. When our current tenant decided that he was moving out we again agreed to try to list it one more time. Tony was referred to me by a co-worker and I agreed to give it a try. Never did we imagine that these two men would sell our house in a matter of 21 days.
Dan was always informing us on every detail and showing he had on the house and when he went on vacation Tony stepped in and took over with the same respect and showmanship that we had already experienced with Dan. These two men in my opinion are well deserving of any company and we will definately spread the word around Pembroke and the Valley of the exceptional service we received from them.
in closing we would like to say thanks again for going above and beyond in taking care of your clients. Please let these two men know that not only have we finally sold our rental unit we have also gained two great friends.
yours truly,
Lisa and Bruce.
Just a note to say Thank You so much for your professional assistance in the recent sale of our former home as well as the purchase of our new home! You made a stressful time much easier with your efficient, customer service oriented approach to both our sale and purchase. we are still amazed by how quickly everything happened, your focus on results is the reason we are recommending you to everyone!
With much appreciation,
Kristy and Nathan
Dear Dan,
words cannot express how thankful we are to have had the privilige of working with such a kind, gentle and intuitive real estate agent. You listened to us go through the growing pains of purchasing our first home and allowed us the time and space to make our decision with confidence. Your professionalism put us at ease and your sense of humor kept things light and easy. You are truly an asset to your field and we will be recommending you to all of our friends!
Thank you so much for finding our dream home!
Live, love, and most of all laugh,
Paul and Catherine
The fish are biting and you must bring your pole and give it a try. we are very happy in our new home on the lake. we cannot thank you enough. the extra time you took, walking us through the whole process, you are terrific.
Please visit soon and be in touch!!
Cathy and Dave
Thank you so much for all of your efforts. You have helped make our dreams come true.
Elizabeth & Bruce
Dan Vodenicar, the absolute very best thing we ever did was to move to a Broker – you know what you are doing,things have run smoothly and quickly. It was so important for us to find someone with whom we could trust and my husband and I found you to be a surprise and delight to work with! I never would have believed our home would have sold as fast as it did and in the timeframe that it did. We are both exceptionally taken back with your professionalism, integrity, forthrightness, and your willingness to go the extra mile and then some in order to please your client. You never told us what we would not like, never said no to any trip, no matter the distance you had to travel and that makes you an exceptional realtor in our eyes. You sold our home in such a small amount of time and in the winter! Then, when we were looking for a new home you allowed us to make our decision without trying to sway us against what we wanted. We found you to be a man of your word; and to a world that is in dire need of people who exercise character traits… such as integrity, sensitivity, intuitiveness beyond what one would expect, you are exceptionally gifted in other areas that would make you an asset to any company you worked for. It has been a privilege working with you Dan.
Once again, thank you for selling our home in such a short time, and helping us with the purchase of a new home. You made a stressful time a wonderful experience! We will definitely spread the word about you. Keep in touch!
Sherri and Robert
Dan, just a quick thank you note for helping us find our dream home! The stress of purchasing and selling was lessened with your help.It sure helped when our house sold in the first day listed to the first viewer. Its been fantastic in our new home and we have no regrets. Stop by soon.
Dianne and Bruce
Dan, we are so appreciative of you and the Signature Team.You handled our stressful, unwanted relocation across the province with "no problem" as your mantra and a calming professionalism beyond anything we could have asked for.You made us feel like we were your only clients. You were always there for us …at any time! You never said no to any house, no matter how far, or how many! We were amazed by your willingness to drive over an hour, in the snow to get to them and never complained about anything!You proved trustworthy in that although we never saw the house we purchased in person, you were our eyes and through countless pictures, videos and reports we were able to make our decision and are so happy with our house with the beautiful views of Lake Calabogie and the mountain.Thank you so much! It was a real pleasure working with you!Stop by any time.
Hi Dan,
it was a pleasure working with you. I would recommend The Signature Team to any one. You are professional, diligent, honest, sincere and someone I have come to trust. Thank you for selling my home in the country and doing it so fast! I thought it would take forever given the location, but no, you sold it in no time flat. Awesome work. Thanks again.
Ann & Malcolm

Andrew assisted us in purchasing and selling our first home. He was able to provide a wealth of knowledge and a stress free environment, which made both buying and selling our home quite relaxing. I highly recommend Andrew, as he was able to sell my home far sooner than I expected. Thanks Andrew!"
F. Dion, August 5, 2015
Andrew assisted us in selling our house at a time when the market was a buyers market. His honesty from the beginning prepared us for the reality of the sale, and his hard work and perseverance sold the house. My employment forced me to move prior to the house selling and I left the house vacant very confident that Andrew would be able to sell the house in a short time frame. His expert advise throughout the sale, especially when I was away was truly helpful and comforting. His professionalism and work ethic simplified the process for us and reduced the stress involved in the sale. It was truly a pleasure to work with Andrew and recommend his services to everyone.
Bessie McGuire

Hey everyone, the below post is from the new team over at Long Tail Pro. As you know, I sold the company several months ago. However, I do still have a small ownership stake and I believe strongly in future of Long Tail Pro, see my review here.
One of the most common suggestions that people had while I was managing Long Tail Pro was that it should be web-based, rather than a desktop app. Well, I'm happy to share that the new team has transitioned the software to a web based application, that we are calling Long Tail Pro Cloud!
As you will read below, there are some exciting new features that are included in the cloud version along with just being a faster tool overall.
With that quick introduction, I'll let the team at Long Tail Pro take over the rest of this post…
After 6 months of hard work and about a million cups of coffee, we've finally launched Long Tail Pro Cloud.
We're extremely excited about this launch and we think the cloud tool has a lot to offer, especially given the recent challenges with Google throttling volumes in the Google Keyword Planner.
Long Tail Pro Cloud offers a number of advantages over the old desktop version of the software. First and foremost, users no longer need to use any of their own accounts for Google, Moz, Majestic, or anything else – everything now runs through our own backend and getting started on your keyword research is as simple as signing up for the app.
Long Tail Pro Cloud also offers a number of new features that we think will prove useful to those of you who are trying to drastically improve and streamline your keyword research process.
Custom Keyword Competition Recommendations based on your site
LTP Cloud allows you to associate a project with a domain, and uses your domain's metrics to give you custom recommendations on what level of Keyword Competition you should be targeting. We'll let you know what levels of keyword difficulty you should be comfortable targeting based on your domain's current metrics, and what keywords might be in reach if you're willing to do some linkbuilding.
For example: If you're trying to target keywords using the domain nichepursuits.com we'd recommend to you that you target keywords with KC lower than 40 (on the low end), but you can target up to KC 48 with content that you intend to try to linkbuild to.
Rank Value
For years, Long Tail Pro has been your go-to tool for assessing keyword difficulty. With Long Tail Pro Cloud, you also get to examine the other side of the coin – Keyword Profitability.
Keyword Profitability is the element that separates a niche site that makes $500 a month from a niche site that makes $5000 a month. With our new Rank Value feature, you can organize your keywords by monetization method (Adsense, Amazon Affiliates, and Custom). Based on this, you can estimate how much you might if you were ranking #1 for that keyword in Google.
NichePursuits Subscribers Free Consultation Call Includes:
- A fully comprehensive competitor link analysis required to rank.
- Custom Strategy Session Tailored For Your Site
- Link and Content Velocity Analysis
- An exact anchor text road map for your backlinks. (limited to first 50)
We integrated our own in-house algorithms that estimate keyword profitability with just a single input from you:
- With Adsense, you simply need to input your site's average Click Through Rate on ads.
- With Amazon Affiliates, all you need to do is enter the average purchase price of the product or group of products that you'll try to sell with a specific keyword.
- We also have a custom option for those running ecommerce sites or who are selling their own products – to use the custom option, all you need to do is enter your visitor value and we handle the rest.
Here's Rank Value in action:
Long Tail Pro Cloud continues to use our proprietary KC algorithm to assess keyword difficulty – only now, KC loads many, many times faster than it did with the desktop app. Plus, in the Cloud version, KC is calculated automatically for each and every keyword that you find – you no longer have to pick and choose which keywords you want to get KC for.
Competition Analysis
The Competition Analysis page in Long Tail Pro is more useful than ever – we've added a number of extra metrics that you can use to scope out the competition, including Referring Domains to the Root Domain of the page you're competing with and a new Domain KC value.
Domain KC takes into account Domain Trust Flow and Domain Citation Flow as well a couple of other factors – it represents the strength of the domain (similar to Moz's Domain Authority metric). It's a good way to tell at a glance how strong your competitor's sites are.
In-App Chat Support
You can now talk to our support staff directly within the app instead of having to open a ticket in a third party support page. Get your questions answered, get product updates and tutorials, or even get advice about developing your website and linkbuilding, all through our in-app chat.
We've kept your Favorite Features
Most of the features that existed in the desktop version of Long Tail Pro have been carried over to LTP Cloud – you can "favorite" keywords, you can filter keywords any way you like, and you can organize all your keywords into different projects. You can export keywords and competition analysis pages. The one feature that we've excluded on purpose is the check available domains feature – we excluded this feature because we no longer believe exact match domains are best SEO practice and we don't want to encourage users to seek them out any more.
Google Adwords
The one thing that we would like to note is that since Long Tail Pro Cloud does not rely on Google Adwords to retrieve Keyword Data, and instead relies on third party services to get keyword suggestions, we do not have full coverage of all the keywords that Google has data for.
Keyword coverage is something we're working to constantly improve. As Google continues to clamp down on access to their data, very soon no tool will be able to provide full Google keyword data any more – we believe the solution we've chosen is the best way to ensure that Long Tail Pro Cloud is sustainable and reliable in the long run. We just want to make it clear that this is one portion of the software that we are absolutely committed to constantly improving.
Future Features
We've got lots of exciting plans now that we've finally launched Long Tail Pro Cloud. We'll be working hard to continuously improve the tool and to keep adding new features. If you have ideas for things that would help your keyword research, please reach out to us through the in-app chat to let us know!
If any of these new features excite you, make sure to start a brand new trial of Long Tail Pro today! Try the app for 10 days for just $1, and if it's not for you, you can cancel anytime within the app, no questions asked.

After joining BJP, she met with BJP national president Jagat Prakash Nadda in New Delhi.

Earlier, minutes after Congress dropped her as their national spokesperson, Khushbu Sundar on Monday resigned from the grand old party amid speculations that may jump ship to the Bharatiya Janta Party (BJP). The move is being considered significant ahead of assembly elections in home state Tamil Nadu next year.
"Few elements seated at higher level within the party, people who have no connectivity with the ground reality or public recognition are dictating terms and people like me who wanted to work for the party sincerely are being pushed and suppressed," Sundar wrote in her resignation letter to Congress president Sonia Gandhi.

At the Chennai airport on Sunday, the actor-politician refused to comment whether she was travelling to Delhi to join the BJP. Asked if she was still with the Congress, Khushbu said, "I do not want to talk about anything."
She was in New Delhi in the first week of October. On October 6, when asked if she was joining the BJP, Khusbhu denied it and said "someone is spending Rs 2 per tweet to spread the rumours".
A senior BJP leader privy to the developments, however, said Khushbu will meet the party's central team in New Delhi on Monday in the presence of Tamil Nadu unit president L Murugan.
"Discussions are still on. It's almost a deal, but the final modalities are still being worked out. By Monday, there will be clarity and an announcement is expected," said the source.
Khushbu Sundar had first sparked off rumours of rift with the Congress in July when she backed the BJP-ruled Centre's new National Education Policy, inviting the ire of her party's Tamil Nadu unit who accused her of "indiscipline".
Refusing to be a "head nodding robot or puppet", Khushbu had then stuck to her support for the NEP and apologized to party leader Rahul Gandhi for her contrarian views. She, however, had denied rumours of joining the BJP back then.
The noted actor, who has 200 films, soap operas and television shows to her credit, had entered politics in 2010, joining the DMK which ruled in Tamil Nadu then. After a rift with party leadership, Khushbu Sundar switched to the Congress in 2014.

The senior citizen was apparently digging for scrap metal when she came upon the fiber-optic cable and "cut it to with a view to stealing it," Georgia's interior ministry spokesman told the AFP. She was arrested and could end up serving three years if convicted of damaging property, but "taking into account her advancing years, she has been released pending the end of the investigation and subsequent trial," said the rep. story continues below The kicker: This has happened before. Many Georgians lost their Internet connection in 2009 when a scavenger damaged the cable during another scrap-metal search. (Read more Armenia stories.)

Editorial — How often does McClatchy read inmates' mail? Probably not very often, and these attempts at sensationalizing article on abortion, Roeder are signs of bias.
The same Associated Press article, printed in two papers. Both are owned by the same company, McClatchy. Two very different headlines. And not much to report.
Here is The Kansas City Star's headline about Scott Roeder, who is charged with murdering Wichita late-term abortionist George Tiller: "Roeder mailings say killings justified."
It's difficult to out-abortion The Kansas City Star, which recently won a "Maggie" Award from Planned Parenthood (named after Margaret Sanger, the early 20th-century supporter of abortion and eugenics, and founder of Planned Parenthood).
But with its July 3 headline for the same AP article The Wichita Eagle one-ups The Star: "Tiller shooting suspect writing to abortion foes from jail."
It's not until — count them — SEVEN paragraphs into the article that one reads, "No one has accused Roeder of breaking any laws because of his jailhouse correspondence."
So, ultimately, this entire article is on the topic of the legal activity of writing letters.
An important tie-in to this story occurred nearly a month ago, as this July 3 article states:
But local and federal law enforcement agencies took seriously a threat Roeder made during a June 7 interview with the Associated Press that there are "many other similar events planned around the country as long as abortion remains legal."
A judge raised Roeder's bond to $20 million, citing his comment to the AP, after a prosecutor argued Roeder's ability to get his message widely disseminated should lead a reasonable person to believe he is engaged in "alleged acts of American terrorism.
Roeder's June 7 comments have already been well-reported. With this new article about Roeder's outgoing mail, one would hope to learn something new. Surely, there's something more to the story, right?
Is the LEVEL of writing activity unique somehow to Roeder? Actually, the article never tells us: The Eagle does not inform the reader about how many letters are outgoing from Roeder's Sedgwick County jail cell. What little we do learn indicates that Roeder's amount of writing activity is quite typical. In paragraphs 12 and 13 from the article, one reads:
Sedgwick County Sheriff Robert Hinshaw said he has assigned a trusted person to read all of Roeder's incoming and outgoing mail. He said Roeder has received about 100 letters.
Jail officials typically check incoming mail for contraband such as pornography or drugs but do not attempt to read all of the more than 97,000 pieces of mail inmates get each year unless there is a specific concern, such as in Roeder's case.
Are officers treating Roeder's mail differently than the average inmate?
Outgoing mail is normally sealed by inmates and not read by prison officials.
OK, so the Sheriff's office is reading Roeder's outgoing mail, when it typically does not read the letters of county inmates. Perhaps the content of Roeder's incoming and outgoing letters is leading law enforcement officials to want to communicate concern to the public. Paragraph nine:
FBI and Justice Department officials declined to comment about whether they were concerned about Roeder's jailhouse contacts. The Sedgwick County public defender's office, which is representing Roeder, did not immediately respond to a message seeking comment. And the Sedgwick County District Attorney's office declined to speak about the matter.
Is this, then, a case of law enforcement not doing its job? We understand that, when government fails to do its job, it is the role of the media to challenge the government. So, is the content of these letters obviously concerning, or are these letters written to newsworthy criminals? Or, is the number of criminals on Roeder's outgoing mailing list a newsworthy figure?
It turns out that only three names are mentioned by The Wichita Eagle, with regard to the recipients of Roeder's mail. None of these individuals is a convicted criminal. Only two of them are confirmed to be "abortion foes." Only one is reported to have ever been jailed. And only one supports Roeder's violent acts (and that person has evidently never been jailed or charged for anything noteworthy). These are the three individuals listed by The Eagle.
- Rev. Donald Spitz: The Eagle reports that he has an "Army of God" Web site that compares George Tiller to Adolf Hitler, and that Spitz supports the murder of abortionists. Paragraph 17 tells us, "he had never heard of Roeder until Roeder's arrest and said they have never spoken specifically about the Tiller shooting." And paragraph 18 says, ""[Spitz] said authorities had not contacted him about Roeder and that he has no plans to kill an abortion doctor himself."
- Linda Wolfe: The Eagle describes her as "an Oregon activist who has been jailed about 50 times for anti-abortion activities." The reader is not told what these "activities" have been. The article says that Wolfe is "close friends with a woman convicted of shooting Tiller in 1993," but there is no elaboration on the meaning of "close friends." It's not explained to the reader until the 19th paragraph that Roeder only mailed Wolfe after she wrote to him that "she no longer believed killing abortion providers was justifiable."
- Angel Dillard: Described as "a Christian-music songwriter from Valley Center." The Eagle never tells us what what her views are on abortion.
She's been questioned several times since striking up a friendship with Roeder after the Tiller shooting.
"They just wanted to check us out and make sure we weren't some nuts that were planning to pick up where Roeder left off," Dillard said. "We have no plans to do anything of violence to anyone. We are reaching out to someone who we know is totally alone right now."
Dillard and her husband have exchanged several letters with Roeder and spoken to him by phone, and she said she plans to visit him next week. She said Roeder has not spoken about Tiller's killing, and has only shared scripture and asked her to pray for an end to abortion.
To summarize what we learn, with certainty, from a Wichita Eagle article whose headline is "Tiller shooting suspect writing to abortion foes from jail.":
- Sedgwick County inmates receive about 100,000 pieces of mail every year.
- Scott Roeder has received about 100 pieces of mail.
- The Sheriff has assigned somebody to read Roeder's outgoing mail. This is typically not the case for Sedgwick County inmates.
- We don't know how many letters have been mailed by Roeder. We don't know the total number of mail recipients. We do know that Roeder has written three different individuals.
- Roeder has written letters to two confirmed "abortion foes."
- To be an "abortion foe" appears to still be legal.
- Only one of Roeder's outgoing letters has been written to an individual who supports Roeder's activity (Donald Spitz). But Spitz has never met Roeder, they have never talked on the phone, and there are apparently no plans for the two to meet or talk. Spitz has mailed Roeder pre-printed pamphlets which (we assume) contain words that support the murder of abortionists, but we are left (through the article's silence) to assume that these pamphlets are non-specific to Roeder's situation, and that they were likely printed prior to Tiller's murder. There doesn't appear to be any substantial individualized communication between the two.
- Two of these three outgoing Roeder letters are to individuals who oppose Roeder's support of violence.
- Perhaps the most newsworthy piece of new information is buried near the end of the article: no law enforcement officials have contacted Spitz with regard to Roeder, but a Christian music artist who prays for Roeder's well-being has been "questioned several times."

Local artist and graphic designer Laurie McIntosh created an art exhibit to honor her late mother, Agnes Smith Brownell. Displayed at Prisma Health Baptist Parkridge Hospital, the exhibit, "All the In Between: My Story of Agnes," shares the story of her late mother using 70 painted panels to explore the life and memories her mother.
Hear more from Laurie about why she created this exhibit in the video above.
From the artist:
In All the In Between: My Story of Agnes, visual artist Laurie Brownell McIntosh uses more than 70 painted panels to tell the cradle-to-grave story of her late mother, Agnes Smith Brownell. A scientist, artist, doctor's wife, and mother, Agnes approached life with a kind of candor and pragmatism that left little room for sentimentality. From telling her thirsty and whining children to "swallow their spit," to tending to her dying husband, to orchestrating a life of ritual in her widowhood, Agnes was a force to be reckoned with, eliciting emotions from her youngest daughter that were equal parts fear, reverence, and love.
All the In Between is a eulogy, a memorial, a work of art, and a kind of tribute that validates everything between the first and last breaths of a life well lived. There are no heroes or heroines in the story; no parables; no broken hearts or drama; no secrets to take to the grave. Yet the story is extraordinary in its simplicity. By capturing images of her mother's life through the intimacy of her own interpretations, McIntosh allows her readers a rare kind of insight to the life of a stranger made close and personal for us through the nuance of her daughter's familiarity. Yet, she does so without folly. Using paintings that are honest and straight forward, yet beautiful and tender, she tells the tale of her mother's life with the kind of dignity that would have made Agnes proud.

ANTIMÉTODO is an artists' collective set up by Ana Luz Ormazábal in 2012, configured as a space of collaboration between creators who are motivated by the need to generate creative processes focused on scenic experimentation and research.
An anti-method based on explorations that question the artistic formats and academic procedures in order to create particular scenic languages by analyzing the potential of sound as the generator of a particular language, as mise-en-scene. A practice that conceives the dramaturgical work as a sound-weave, the performers as instruments and the design as visual noise, among other premises.
This group, whose chief members are César Erazo, Diana Carvajal, Diego Nawrath, Macarena Rozic, Camila González, Nicole Sazo, Isabel Valencia and Ana Luz Ormazábal, began developing work on 2012, together with other artists who collaborate depending on the needs of each project.
They have developed performances such as, Concierto (2012), Agnetha Kurtz Roca Method (2015) and Ópera (2016), and diverse workshops and masterclasses around Chile.
AL PACINO is a new research of ANTIMÉTODO that explores in the multiple possibilities that emerge when the performers and audience are in relation with a screen. By examining the power of image in cinema we will look into the notion of the "photogenic", which generates reality around conceptions such as self and identity.
Influenced by Judith Butler's ideas on the performative self-construction and Gilles Deleuze's proposal of three varieties of images: the perception-image, the action-image, and the affection-image, a field emerges in which it's possible to question conceptions around beauty in arts and mass media.
AL PACINO is thought as a provocation: being a movie (millions of images together) a common shared object, can it become an unrepeatable, elusive experience? It is possible to
imagine an image that loses its objective nature?
Inspired by the entrance of cinema in Chile, specifically by the first mute and porn movies, the collective will attempt to hijack the photogenic from movies and re-define it as a dynamic, sonorous, immaterial and obscure notion for the mise-en-scene.
AL PACINO inaugurates its creative phase at The Watermill Center and will continue in Chile in collaboration with Esteban Cerda, Mariela Mignot, Jose Ignacio De Vries, Macarena Rozic, Carmina Infante and Jose Manuel Gatica.
In Process @ The Watermill Center invites the community to engage with our Artists-in-Residence on Saturday afternoons through open rehearsals, workshops, studio visits, lectures or artist talks.
Watermill's mission is to provide artists and thinkers the opportunity to focus on the development of their work and practice. Artists-in-Residence have gone on to perform at venues and festivals including the New Museum, Roulette, PS122, American Realness, Clocktower Gallery, Performa, Vienna's Donaufestival, Kampnagel in Hamburg, CPR – Center for Performance Research, and the Baryshnikov Arts Center.

Identify and explain two types of family diversity in the contemporary UK? Family diversity means that there are many different types of family in society today not just nuclear, cereal packet families. Sociologists describe different forms of the family, the two types of family diversity I' am going to talk about are the Nuclear Family and Ethnic Minority families. Nuclear family – this family consists of: Parents and children, the adults assume responsibility for the children who are either their own or adopted.
An ideology presents a partial picture as being normal. Therefore and ideology of a particular type of family, such as the nuclear family, presents that family type as being the most acceptable way of being, Sociologists also sometimes talk about 'the cereal packet family' (Leach 1967) – a certain type of nuclear – this refers to the image most people hold of the family. It is also the picture of the family that the media tends to present, especially in adverts.
The cereal packet family comprises of: parents and children, the woman is a housewife and full time mother and the man is the 'breadwinner' i.
e. he is the one who has to go to work to earn money. Ethnic Minority Families South Asian Families, people coming to live in Britain from other countries has helped create greater diversity in the family, the increase in the number of South Asian families in Britain has contributed to an increase in the number of vertically extended families. (this means that the family has three different age generations in it, e. . grandparents, parents and children. ) West Indian families West Indian households in Britain tend to have a higher number of lone parent families headed by the mother than other ethnic groups. The term for this is matriarchal (this means a female dominated family). West Indian lone parent families tend to have strong support networks amongst their female relatives. We need to remember though that not all South Asian and West Indian families are like this, they also have diversity of family types.
It would appear from the evidence presented that there is no one typical family type in Britain. Most sociologists believe that family types are becoming increasingly diverse. In conclusion although the fact that most sociologists say that family is becoming more diverse, most people would still describe the nuclear family which consists of a married couple with children. It is the most common type of family, although sociologists argue that it is under threat. As with all types of family, there are both positives and negatives to consider.
Positives include: The New Right argues that the nuclear family is ideally suited to teaching a child moral decency, Functionalists believe that the nuclear family is the one best suited to the wider needs of society (i. e. one person goes out to work, the other stays at home and looks after the children). Negatives include: Feminists argue that the wife is exploited in a nuclear family. By staying at home she becomes little more than an unpaid servant and carer, and another is the nuclear family can consist of emotional blackmail and verbal / sexual abuse. This is sometimes called the 'dark side of the family. '
