Although the term family is a basic concept, it is not easy to define because family composition and structure, as well as the roles played by family members, are almost always in transition. According to many research, the family remains the central or dominant institution and also the major household consumer and consuming unit.

Identify ONE (1) traditional family and ONE (1) nontraditional family or household featured in a TV series/movies. Classify the traditional group into one of the traditional FLC stages and the nontraditional group into the alternative FLC stages.
