Features: In the complex modern society, technology has provided us with more conveniences, while the boundaries between work and family, public and private are gradually blurring. Our way of working, understanding of marriage, communication with each other, and how we define family are all changing. As a result, many fundamental and important aspects of our understanding of "family life" have also changed. With sharp insight, Maggie Jackson discovered that family life has been relegated to a secondary position compared to work. She brought work home, and as night fell, she no longer cuddled her daughters or shared the little moments of life with them, but quickly sent them off to continue working. Moreover, we are increasingly turning work into a substitute for family. Maggie Jackson explores the role of family life. She said, "In the process of exploration, I realized that family life is more important than I imagined. Without family life, it is difficult for us to consider ourselves human."
