Roles within the Egyptian family have changed more than in the past due to economic pressures on the Egyptian family, which called for one parent to go to work or both and depend on their children to participate in the family, without discrimination between males and females Social change also caused the Egyptian family to change roles and to move to a new type or form of family structure, namely the nuclear or small family, which became self-dependent in meeting needs without the large family interfering in decisions concerning the family. Also, cultural beliefs about family participation have changed clearly within the Egyptian family, allowing children to participate in private decisions, take their opinions and give them the freedom to express their thoughts.
