From the Paper:

"The term culture defined by Websters is as follows: A particular form of civilization, especially the beliefs, customs, arts, and institutions as a society at a given time. (What is family culture?) To start with, culture is not sanctified and does not belong to anyone. It cannot be kept on a shelf or in a museum to store a society's previous history. Culture is the existing complete way of life and a lively system of adjustment.

(Education &Culture) With regard to rules, roles, habits, activities, beliefs, and other areas, family culture is the exclusive way that a family forms itself. (What is family culture?)"
