Detailed explanation-1: -The family and its members are society in miniature. Industrialization radically disrupts this more or less autonomous family economy. It takes away the economic function of the family, and reduces it to a unit of consumption and socialization. Production moves away from the household to the factory.
Detailed explanation-2: -Industrialization changed the family by converting it from a unit of production into a unit of consumption, causing a decline in fertility and a transformation in the relationship between spouses and between parents and children. This change occurred unevenly and gradually, and varied by social class and occupation.
Detailed explanation-3: -It has lost its age-old valued functions of rearing and caring (child-raising) and education of the child. Such loss of function reduces the dependence of the young on the family at an early age. Thus, the family loses its authority and control over the young.
