CHAPTER ONE
INTRODUCTION
BACKGROUND OF
THE STUDY
Family
is a group of people related either by blood or by marriage. These relations
often form very meaningful social groups in which we feel comfortable and safe.
The close bounds which we make usually last until they are broken by death or
sometimes geographical distances.
Anyakoha
(1991) stated that family that family is important institution which passes on
the culture to the children, channels sexual appetites and provides the means
of satisfying human needs.
According
to Odigbo (2002) family is a social institution established by God from the
beginning, when he created man and woman and command them to lived together for
the purpose of multiplying and filling the earth. By this proclamation, the
family acquired an inherent and inahenable light to care for and educate the
young members of the family.
Odigbo
(2002) stated that marriage as an organized society consists of the rules which
governs the relationship between husband and wife or husbands and wives. These
rules defines how the relationship shall be established and how it may be ended
the expectations and obligation it entails and the persons who may or may not
enter into such relationship.
Chinoy
(1961) states that marriage is a palrilocal residence if the husband and wife
slays with the man’s family, malrical residence if the husband and wife slays
with the woman’s family, neolocal residence. If the husband and wife
established their own independent domical. In addition to ensuring a continuing
sexual relationship because of its child bearing function, marriage is also the
licensing of parenthood. In view of this it is a drama in which everyone
becomes an actor or actress and not just a spectator.
These
days, things are changing because of rising tide of the powerful few interest
in human generated by liberation movement, the life of woman alone. Widow,
divorce and separated and recognition today. Today there are a lot of books, articles,
drama on the legal and emotional aspect of separation, on the changing status
of the working couples, on the financial complexities of widowhood on the
challenge of single parenthood and of course, on the joys and sorrows of the
single woman’s love life. The basic challenge for the most separates homes is
going shapes and direction to their lives, because the separation of home is
like being faced with pieces of a complicated jigsaw puzzle and asked to fit
them together in a meaningful and satisfying way.
Marriage
in Africa region was being dominated by men
folk. The woman’s duly was to cook, keep home and farm, movement for her was
restricted when the man was away another elder in the family takes care and
control of all the members of the family till the man returns from the journey.
That is to say that woman live under the care, control and protection of man
while their husband traveled.
The
civilization education and modern life have lifted the status of woman in the
society, some are stronger than men in the family and in all capacities except
the naturally endowed powers.
Women
today, can do any job, more freely to all parts of the world just as men do.
They are neither controlled nor fear that anything will hinder them. Some women
today like better life than men. To many of us the world outside marriage life
looks bleak and bewildering. How does families who has been living together
feel when they are separated? How does the woman cope with the fids. This
research is not for the man who wonders how he will leave his family for
sometimes to a distance place.
This
research work will provide an encouragement and sound advice on attendant
problems that may enumerate from living separately, such as emotional and
practical issues that faces couples living apart love and friendship works and
money, day care and decision making while a husband in away from homes.
Family
may also be separated if one is doing a kind of job that requires long absence
for example armed forces sewices
