The American sociologist Talcott Parsons believed that the two most important functions of the modern family are the primary socialization of children and the stabilization of adult personalities through marriage and the raising of children.
His own concern was particularly with the middle-class American family, but these important aspects of family life are also applicable much more widely. In the present context it is worthwhile to look especially at primary socialization.
(47)
Primary socialization refers to the training of children during their earliest years, whereas secondary socialization refers to later influences on the development of the child’s personality and learning activities, such as his involvement with teachers and with other children at school.
Primary socialization is in most societies carried out essentially within the family as part of child rearing. In the modern family, parents take responsibility for raising and teaching their children such basic things as language and correct behavior. Toilet training, teaching children how to eat correctly, and encouraging children to get along with others are all aspects of child rearing. However, it is not only these more mundane aspects of behavior that children learn. Children are also implicitly encouraged to develop the values of the parents and of the society in which they live. In American society, which was Parsons’ main concern, these values include independence, motivation for achievement, and competition. In other societies, different values, such as cooperation and egalitarianism, may be stressed. (48)
Yet the principle behind primary socialization in different societies is the same: the development of social values must be achieved in an environment of love and security, as is found in the ideal family anywhere in the world.
However, few families are ideal. Studies of the families of emotionally disturbed children have shown that unsatisfactory relationships between husbands and wives can have detrimental effects on children.
Sometimes a child is used as a scapegoat. The parents blame or even physically abuse the child in order to cover up their own difficulties. (49)
In such a ease, the child often fails to develop the values the parents wish to instill in him, developing instead antisocial habits leading to deviant behavior in later life.
Indeed, the cycle may be repeated if such a person in time marries, has a family of his own, and treats his children in the same way. Nonetheless, there is no reason to suppose that all children of unsatisfactory marriages are treated in such a way or fail to overcome the difficulties they have as children.
(50)
Some social scientists have even suggested that the isolated nuclear family, as it exists in Western industrialized societies, is to blame for the social ills found in those societies.
They claim that in the past more support was offered from the wider kin network and from the community as a whole—as is still the case in less-developed parts of the world, The British psychiatrists R.D. Laing and David Cooper suggested that the modern family is dysfunctional in that, by its very nature, it forces upon children an undue emphasis on obedience to authority. These negative viewpoints aside, most experts as well as most parents agree that the primary socialization process in the modern family offers benefits both t6 the child and to the parents.

解析
定语从句的翻译;动名词短语的翻译。复合句。本句主干是the child often fails to develop the values...。the parents wish to instill in him是一个省略了引导词的定语从句,修饰the values,定语从句前置译成"的"字结构;developing instead...是动名词短语作状语,翻译时将主语重复译成与主句并列的句子:leading to...in later life作定语修饰habits,可加译主语将动名词短语译成单独一句。
