dc.description.abstract | Research on the family in Malta has been going on for some years. It confirms that the family is at the basis of Maltese society and that two out of three families are satisfied with their home life (Tabone C.). This means that the Maltese family remains strong and continues to provide support and formation. However, presently, it is facing challenges and problems which seem to be increasing as time passes. In the light of this situation, some are claiming that the introduction of divorce might provide a solution to these problems while others claim that divorce would only compound the problems the family is facing. We believe thatthe family still has a central role to play and, given its importance, we feel that every effort should be done to protect its integrity. | en_GB |
