Could the Nuclear Family Be the Reason We’re All Miserable?
Spot on. This is something my wife and I have known for a while now. The shitty part of this reality, is that there isn&#x27;t much anyone who isn&#x27;t extremely can do about it. In countries like Denmark, there are many apartment communities which have communal areas and kitchens, which allows folks to have &quot;villages&quot; in close quarters to city centers.<p>My experience on the west coast of the USA however, is that no such thing exists outside of convalescent homes for elderly people.<p>Some people have gone to extreme lengths to buy up land with a 503c corp in order to create communes in the countryside, which is great! While that solves the issues around villages and communal living, it divorces itself from the life and culture of society at large. How can we still benefit from communal living, while still providing the option to work a modern job in a downtown office?
