What Is The Good Sons Club View Of Growth?

In the context of a dynamic extended family, growth means:

As time goes on the extended family adds to its ability to provide mutual aid and support. In addition, the family adds to its ability to respond to adversity and take advantage of opportunity. The extended family adds members through marriage, birth, adoption and friendships.

It does not mean that we advocate having many children. However, we do advocate that family size not be stigmatized. Specificaly, when a couple does decide to have a great number of children, no stigma should be attached.

The Good Sons Club does advocate that extended families provide an ever increasing anount of mutual aid and support. An ever increasing ability to provide mutual aid and support needs to be seen within the context of individual contribution.

Furthermore, The Good Sons Club sees that an ever increasing ability to provide mutual aid and support is made possible because growth is made sustainable through family unity, contributions from all members and by aiming to have a long legacy.

Thus, we return to the concept of The Dynamic Family Table: Mutual Aid And Support resting upon the legs of growth, contribution, unity and longevity.
