Die Familie ist ein herausragender Lernort des Glaubens. Innerhalb der religiösen Bildung und Erziehung kommt ihr geradezu eine Schlüsselstellung zu. Dennoch hat sie in evangelischer Religionspädagogik bisher nur wenig Beachtung gefunden. Michael Domsgen plädiert für eine stärkere Gewichtung der Familie und widmet sich dieser Thematik in drei Teilen: Zuerst zeichnet er Tendenzen des familialen Wandels nach. Danach untersucht er detailliert das Verhältnis von Familie und Religion, um abschließend Perspektiven für heutiges religionspädagogisches Arbeiten in Theorie und Praxis zu formulieren. Besonders hilfreich ist, dass dabei durchgängig die vergleichende Perspektive zwischen Ost- und Westdeutschland beachtet wird

Research on homeless families has focused primarily on residents of emergency and transitional housing programs, most of which serve victims of domestic violence and/or substance abuse, primarily women, excluding male partners and adolescent children. Resulting family profiles are skewed towards unaccompanied women with dependent children. Evaluation of a temporary emergency shelter for homeless families revealed a markedly different profile. Families housed were older, more often married and living together, and had more older children than reported elsewhere. Many were income-earning households left homeless by low income, a high rental market and under-funded migration moves in their search for employment. Housing and income policies need to include the unique needs of dual parent households with dependent children.
