After focusing on some demographic characteristics of the current phenomenon, the most salient features of the family culture of some nations from which foreigners come are highlighted. The processes of change described concern the different connotation of tasks and functions of the partners, the elements that constitute and give value to the life of the couple, as well as the representation of the parental role.
