Changing family structure in India.

Last two decades have drastically changed Indian social senario.A sudden shift from joint to nuclear to single parent or childless families is apparent.In such a situation dealing with financial, social and moral obligations is becoming increasingly difficult for the earning member of family.Be it time,location or desired attention, the earning members find themselves stuck in middle of conflicting responsibilities.And, even if they chose one of them, the other side always hanker for attention.

Where to compromise becomes the decision point and family appears as the easier solution.But, this decision makes the compromised party the detached or distressed one.The problem aggrevates when the family members have to relocate to distant lands.Manageable problems such as time,money and attention shifts to serious problems of security and health issues.

Aware N Alive is an effort to create an extended family system wherein we take care of parents while their children are away from home.This organization is an attempt to link distant members of a family and share their responsibilities and feelings at the same time.
