Do you agree that friends have become more important than family?

I don't quite agree that friends have become more important than family. I think that family was, is, and will be the most important thing to us. Family is the most loyal supporter of you, knows you better than anyone else, and have this "invisible" connection with each other.

Firstly, your family is your most loyal supporter. It is true that family provides you food, educaiton, shelter, and clothing, but it is also true that it supports you whenever you are in a difficult situation. Even though you had committed a crime, your family will be ready to do everything to help you: it can advise you what to do, forgive you, or help you to escape from that situation. Family supports you and truly helps you in a difficult situation.

Secondly, you lived with your family throughout your life; thus, you know your family, and family knows you well. Your parents, your sisters or brothers know what you like, what you hate, what you are afraid of, what your favorite song, place, or book is , or how many times you fell from your bed while sleeping. Sisters and brothers grew with you; therefore, they shared the same experiences: they understand you and appreciate you more than anybody else.

Lastly, there is an "invisible" connection between your family and you. We are all connected with the common family name, share same blood, and look similar to each other. We trust them, and they trust us. Family does not just provide us shelter, food, or clothing - we need someone we can come back to , our home, our family. We need our family, and the family needs us too. Therefore, there are more than friends; I think that family cannot be ever compared to friends.
