To what extent is Singapore a family-friendly society?
Singapore is a family-friendly society when the government considers the welfare of families. When the welfare of families are being taken into consideration, government would implement policies and building infrastructures that caters to families. For example, the government implemented the five-day work week in 2004 to encourage families to spend their weekend having bonding sessions and doing activities together to foster better family relations. Besides, the government also built attractions that cater to families. For example, Sentosa has come up with attractive family packages and provides a good place for families to hangout and bond together as they could have a family outing at Sentosa. However, Singapore is not a family-friendly society when Singaporeans do not spend quality time with their families. When Singaporeans are unwilling to spend quality time with their families, government’s effort to make Singapore a family-friendly society would be futile. For example, most youths would prefer to spend their leisure time with their friends instead of their families as they are at an age where they would prefer to hangout with people of their same generation where they find an identity. Hence, during weekends, these “children” of the family would usually go out with their friends rather than their parents. Thus, Singapore is a family-friendly society when the welfare of families are taken into consideration when implementing policies but not so when the Singaporeans do not respond to the policies implemented.
