Here are some of the ways the families are significant, I'm not sure how far you are in the story yet tho. I read this book last year, so I can't remember which parts these are from
1) The way they have 2 children to a family, one male and one female
2) Raising children were rules in the community
3) The parents aren't the real birth givers of the children, you had to apply for kids
4) Very controlled family with special practices

Answer:
Hi!
The answer to your question is option 3. The southern slaveholders claimed that the north benefited from slavery because they pointed out that the North’s textile industry depended on southern cotton.
Explanation:
As you may know, slaves in the south worked mainly on the cotton fields. Because harvesting cotton required a very large group of people, slaves were brought and the cotton industry skyrocketed. The south became rich for their cotton production and the north’s textile industry also benefited as they now had a bigger suppy of cotton to work with.
Because the industry was doing so well and people were making more money, the North defended slavery by showing how much the textile industry had benefited from the cotton harvested in the south by slaves. Since the textile industry depended entirely on the cotton harvested by slaves in the South, the North argued that the sudden end to the slave economy would a profound and killing economic impact since the cotton economy would collapse.
