Most recently, Covid-19 quarantine has plagued some Iranian families. The novelty of this situation concerning modern life and the intersection with the sudden dangers of this era cause to occur behaviors, actions, and reactions in quarantined families that can be studied. Studying the lived experience of this group of families provides the possibility of recognizing the capacities, problems, and individual and social dimensions of the Iranian family. The main goal of this paper is to study the lived experience of Iranian families during the quarantine period based on phenomenological method using a semi-structured interviews with 16 families from different parts of the Iran. Therefore, the interviews were analyzed using the thematic analysis technique. The results of data analysis showed that the families are classified into three different categories including: "reflexive family ", "passive family" and "combined family”. During the quarantine period, the reflexive family used expert systems to identify their weaknesses, issues, and problems and resolve them as much as possible. The passive family was not able to face the difficulties and problems of the quarantine conditions. The combined family was able to identify some of their own problems, but they did not have the ability to solve their problems.

Television advertising has the power to create images from different concepts to influence public opinion. Purpose of this study is to investigate the Representation of television advertising from Iranian life style. In this study, qualitative approach and discourse analysis method have been used.

Today, changes in families have begun to take on different forms, both beginning and ending. Given the increasing divorce rate among couples, the legislator has been trying to think of measures to reduce the harm and its consequences. Referral to counseling centers is one of the programs that have been compulsory by court centers in Tehran in 1997 to reduce divorce. The purpose of this study was to investigate the experience of counseling between men and women applying for divorce through narrative analysis method and purposeful sampling. Findings about women's experiences of referral to counseling centers are analyzed in three stages: first; the decision to divorce; second, the arms of judicial counseling; and third, the agreement on divorce. In fact, premature start of life and having meta-marital relationships along with the intervention of the families make the couple divorced, providing grounds for the divorce event. In the meantime, applying for a divorce agreement is another stage of compulsory separation counseling, which can be termed overtime counseling, which in most cases leads to an inability to reach a solution. Of course, the aftermath of such counseling makes it possible to prepare for separation and deal with the dang.

Family, as a social institution or group, has been evolving throughout history. Evolution of family needs to be studied in order to understand its functions and structure. Unfortunately, the evolution of family during the long Iranian history has not been studied seriously. This paper is an effort to shed some light on the structure and functions of the Iranian family under Sassanids using documentary method. The findings reveal that the dominant form the family in this period was “extended family” which along with the religious and political institutions constructed the Sassanid society. The family structure in this era was patriarchal, polygamy was prevalent, and in-group marriages were preferred. The official religion of the empire, Zoroastrianism, viewed family as a sacred institution with its main function as reproduction. Other functions of the family were production and provision of economic support, socialization and education of offsprings, who had to inherit their father and mother’s jobs. Relatives of father, in this period, had superiority to the relatives of mother’s side, and the oldest son and his family lived with his parents.

Family is assumed to be a primary institution in human society. Structure and functions of this social unit have been evolving. However, social scientists believe the changes it has been facing during the recent years are different, because they go beyond structure and now the meaning of family is somehow changing.Many policymakers and scholars are seriously concerned about the way people see and preserve traditional views to this sacred institution. Others see this as a natural trend and believe that the world has been completely revolutionized and mankind is trying to build a new form of family, appropriate to the modern time in the new millennium. In this article we tried to articulate six important challenges of the unit of family. Then, we addressed responses of Iran’s society to them. To do that, we reviewed related documents and statistics as well as official definitions of the family in different countries. Iran has a relatively traditional, religious society and thus resistant to big changes in this area. But many questions have risen particularly for young people and proper responses must be provided. So, we need to negotiate via intergenerational dialogue. It appears that we are not well-prepared for these challenges.
