- Why do we need laws to tell us what a family is?

Social Studies

As citizens we respect the laws because they are clearly communicated and fairly enforced. Everyone is held accountable to the same laws, and those laws protect our fundamental rights. This is the foundation of the rule of law in the United States.

Answer:

We don't.

Explanation:

There aren't any laws nowadays that I know of that TELL you what family is. The gay peeps got their rights as well, so that's an additional statement to that. By nature, a male and a female get together to produce babies, which in turn is considered a family unit. Take lions and wolves for example. That's in nature though, humans are a whoooooole other bag of beans.

In the U.S., where you can LEGALLY marry a "s3xdoll" (that HAS happened) and adopt kittens and rag dolls as your children and call yourself a family, then I feel comfortable enough to say that there aren't any laws to tell us what family is. To each their own, we have freedoms here.

Of course, to get stuff like medicare and money from the government, you need HUMAN children and a HUMAN partner. That's the only "law" I can think of that might come into play. Hope this helped.

solniwko [45]
The answer is A. The scientists found that sentimental love was available in 147 out of 166 societies (88.5%). For the rest of the 19 societies, there were no signs demonstrating that individuals encounter sentimental love. The outcomes demonstrated that sentimental love is about all inclusive on the planet, yet we can't make the determination that each individual begins to look all starry eyed.
