Families do not receive all the help they need from society, neither economically nor laborally they seem to be the budgetary priority. But if we talk about large families, things are especially complicated. Our colleagues from Peques and more have shown us the video made by the Association of Large Families of the Basque Country Hirukide.The video is starring the children of these large families and they transmit their requests to politicians, worries and problems.
Family and work conciliation is a pending point in our social organization. While working hours are so long and not very flexible, it is very difficult to achieve what should be a priority, allow parents to educate their children directly and spend more time with them. Both the emotional stability and the academic performance of the children, in addition to their happiness, would increase with real conciliation measures.
It seems that when legislating it is forgotten that having, caring, raising and educating children is the most important activity of a society. The families in this video complain about not receiving enough recognition and protection. And they ask for explanations.
Economic assistance and priority social protection for families would allow children to grow safer, making it unthinkable for couples to increase the family.
The way that this video with the children of large families It transmits these and other pending questions to politicians. It is solved in a very direct and charming way. I hope they listen to you.
