Basically this study focuses on addressing the gap by trying to tackle a number of crucial areas like; (1) To understand the difference between traditional and modern societies. (2) Effects of modernization on the social-cultural aspect of families (3) assess the measures that may safeguard the aspect of social-culture in families. This will be determined by the use of both qualitative and quantitative methods since it involves both in-depth non-numerical and numerical interpretation. Based on secondary and primary data collected from 50 parents in T/A Chimwala by the use of questionnaires and interview schedule, the study demonstrates that the majority of the respondents generally agreed that modernization has affected the cultural values, socio-economic conditions, communication and education of the families.
