Detailed explanation-1: -Parsons famously described this in his warm bath theory. This was the idea that when a man came home from a hard day at work, he could relax into is family like a warm bath and it would take away the stress and refresh him for the next day’s work.
Detailed explanation-2: -Parsons suggests that the nuclear family is the best family type for meeting the needs of society and the individual. He claims that the family performs two irreducible functions that satisfy some of society’s functional pre requisites.
Detailed explanation-3: -Parsons’ Warm Bath theory suggests that when a man comes home from a busy day of work, his family provides him with stress relief and relaxation; just as a warm bath would. This ensures the emotional needs of the breadwinner are met.
Detailed explanation-4: -According to Parsons working life in Industrial society is stressful and the family is a place where the working man can return and be ‘de-stressed’ by his wife, which reduces conflict in society.
Detailed explanation-5: -Parsons claims that human personalities are made and not born. They are created through the process of socialisation. The main agent of primary socialisation is the family. There are two separate elements to this: the primary socialisation of children and the stabilisation of adult personalities.
