Every person comes from a different family background and culture. Understanding other cultures is so important, it is the only way to love people and understand their beliefs.
I believe that all cultures are equally valid and there is no one culture that is the 'right' culture. The purpose of family is to bring to pass Heavenly Father's plan, bring up children, provide structure, socialization/ set expectations, offer love and support, influence values, and provide financial resources. Fulfilling the purposes of family can happen in any culture.
Social class has made itself apparent that it is important in the United States. People strive to be upper class with money, prestige, education, and a wealthy appearance. It is important to remember to focus on family needs rather than meeting expectations for being high-class!
