Define family goals and standards - JSS1 Home Economics Family needs, goals and standards Question

Family goals are specific purpose or objectives the family has in mind, e.g building a house, buying a car, providing good education for the children etc.

Standards are measures of quality, quantity and method of goal attachment. They are used to measure the value of something, such as an activity (e.g standard of living). Family standards are what a person or a family as good and worthwhile. For instance, to pass a home economics examination could be your goal but to obtain an A instead of a C is your standard. So this standard then acts as your limit and will influence your action because of the satisfaction you hope to get from it. Thus, you are forced to work hard for an A.
