"Modern-day couples have lost the support network of large families in the agricultural society of the past. Unless the husband-wife relationship is strengthened more, our families won't stand up to the blow of modernization as well as those in Europe and North America," says Yang Hsia-jung, a sociology professor at Soochow University.
「現代夫妻失去了過去農業社會大家庭的支持網絡，如果仍然不加強夫妻軸，我們的家庭將比歐美國家更經不起現代化的衝擊」，東吳大學社會系教授楊孝提出警告說。
