What role do the people play in China's government?

The family is arguably the most important social institution in China and blood ties have traditionally been the cornerstone of society. In accordance with Confucian customs many families keep careful genealogical records on bloodlines, achievements, even graveyards.

Traditionally, sons and their wives lived with the son's parents until the parents died at which time the sons divided the household and property. In some cases the older son inherited a larger share than the others and often got the house. Married daughters were usually left out of the equation (they were taken care of by their husband and his family) unless they were unmarried or the family had no sons.

Parents have traditionally ruled with absolute authority. The idea that children are independent entities worthy of respect in. their own right is a relatively new concept in China. One child families have given children more power.
