Answer 1

While joint families offer tradition and togetherness, they can also entail unequal distribution of work (often burdening women), limited privacy, and pressure to conform, which may suppress individuality. Conflicts over space/resources can strain sibling bonds. Excess authority of elders might stifle open dialogue and innovation. Hence, the romanticized benefits sometimes mask substantial challenges.
