Inclusive Definitions

Inclusive definitions avoid the term "normal families" as being a mom, dad, and child. Instead they use the term family to describe the wide variety of possibilities that can be considered a family. Anywhere from same sex marriages, to open marriages with children etc is considered a family. It examines all relationships, where a feeling of connection is present. I felt silly when Rob stated that all Disney families aren’t nuclear families. After all my years of watching Disney movies, one would think I would have noticed this trend already. I would think that being such a big corporation, responsible for so many children’s films, they would try to create a stereotypical nuclear family.
