MY IDEAL FAMILY
What is the traditional family? Nowadays many people cannot answer this question, because there are more and more adoptive, - blended or fosters families.
But is it important to know this, is the traditional way always the right way? In my opinion there are many right ways.
In the following essay I will explain my ideal family and bring some arguments and examples.
To start with the ideal setup, to talk of the perfect setup is difficult, because it’s different from culture to culture and nationality to nationality.
The setup of the traditional family consists of mother, father and two children, one son and one daughter. But I think that’s not ideal, in my opinion an ideal family needs more than two children, because especially for younger kids are communication and playing with their brothers and sisters an important thing. I cannot put me in the position of a child without brothers and sisters.
In the contrary to my opinion, in the traditional family the father goes to work and the mother plays the typical housewife. I don’t care, if the father or the mother stays at home, because I think the father also can do the homework and look after the children.
The next point is the relationship between the family members. For a good harmony in the family, the parents should like and understand each other, therefore the children have a good example, how to deal with there brothers and sisters. And if there is a good harmony between the whole family, it’s a real backup for everyone. The worst thing that can happen to the family, especially for the children is when the parents get divorced and nowadays almost 50 percent of all marriages get divorced!
The relationship is very important, so I can say, that a one-parented family with a good harmony is better than a traditional family with bad relationships between the members, than young kids need many time and sympathy and if the parents are quarrelling the whole time they neglect their children.
The last thing is the importance of the family for the society.
A family with a good harmony can be a role model for families with some issues. For example, these criminal kids, such problems starts in the family, and domestic violence often over lap to the kids. So I can infer from that, that a family with harmony and good relationships is important for society.
To conclude, sure I’m affected of my childhood and my family and everybody can see it with other eyes, anyway I think a family with good relationships between the members is a big advantage.

In an opinion essay you claim something in the introduction and then you try to convince the readers that you're right (in the main part). So you could claim: "There is no ideal family." or "The nuclear family is the ideal family." or "Any family where the relationships are based on love and understanding is the ideal one." etc. but you cannot write something like "In the following essay I will explain my ideal family and bring some arguments and examples."

[This paragraph is badly organized and it doesn't fulful the purpose of a paragraph in an opinion essay.]
str /exp: "For a good harmony in the family, the parents should like and understand each other, therefore the children have a good example, how to deal with there brothers and sisters." ---> In a harmonious family the parents should ...

[This is not a correct paragraph for an opinion essay.]
exp: "For example, these criminal kids, such problems starts in the family, and domestic violence often over lap to the kids." --> C???
Quite a few language problems, esp. with vocabulary.
This is not really an acceptable opinion essay.
