Social Class and Family Life
On page 222 of Chapter 8 in the textbook, Friedman et al. states, "Social class along with cultural, background, exerts the greatest overall influence on family life influencing family values and priorities, family behavioral patterns, socialization practices, family role expectations, and world experiences."
In your professional or personal experiences,describe one situation in which you have seen how a family's culture and/or social class have had a major impact on family behavioral patterns. This may be related to illness prevention (Stage 1 Health Promotion) and/compliance with a treatment plan prescribed by the healthcare provider (Stage 5 AcuteResponse to Illness)
