IntroductionCulture provides a basic model to help organize society and predict the behavior of others. There are different cultural formations; these formations depend on complex elements. In the modern world, the term “family,” for example, has divergent meanings. There may be one or more people involved in a child's education; all with diverse roles and characteristics, genders or even interests in the child. We live in a diverse world, not just in the United States, but globally.
