    This chapter deals with the evolution of the concept of family, starting from human history, the marriage process, spouse selection, the role of families in relationships and the process of having children. Family is defined as a structure that meets the emotional, social and physiological needs of individuals. The human being’s need for a partner in his life journey as a social being, the process of choosing a partner, and the emotional and social dynamics experienced in this process are explained. The decision to marry requires mutual trust, love and harmony, and the couples’ commitment to each other is strengthened with the new responsibilities that arise during the marriage process. The process of having a child is considered as an experience that strengthens family ties, as well as fulfilling the genetic responsibilities of the couple. Developing healthy relationships within families is important for the mental health of individuals and society. The document serves as a guide to understand the different stages of becoming a family and the marriage process and the difficulties encountered in these processes.
