Changing Social, Cultural,  Economic, Political and Technology bring changes in the Traditional Family System - the Joint-Family. As a result the older people are uncared and the young are unaided. The incident of divorce rate is increasing. 

Hence Family Life Education is the need of the hour.

Preparing individuals and families for the roles and responsibilities of family living is nothing new.
Because knowledge about human development, interpersonal relationships, and family living, even though,  is not innate, societies need to develop ways through which they may transmit the wisdom and the experience of family living from one generation to the succeeding ones.
Some societies transmit this knowledge through formal means such as puberty or initiation rites, rituals and folkways.
For the most part, however, individuals had chances for learning about family living in the family setting itself as they observe and participate in family activities and interactions in their own and other families, in the past.
As societies change and become more complex, this pattern of informal learning about living in families becomes inadequate. 

The development of new knowledge, advances in technology, and changing social and economic conditions create situations where the teachings of previous generations are no longer appropriate or sufficient.
