For this, along with the society's masters, poets/writers/singers/heroes/heroines/teacher classes, and other social workers, politicians should also write and think about the implications of the downfall of the family as an institution. Open forums should discuss what is causing this decline. And how can one emerge from this decline? It provides stability to society by encouraging law-abiding citizens.
