The problematization was raised from a dialógo with the field of anthropology, sociology and the legal field. It is the family as a social model always under construction that can and must be suitable as an analytical category and is not possible to provide ready and finished concepts. Various forms of family can be viewed depending on space, the place and time considered, we can say that several family arrangements coexist.
