Family values refers to a set of common beliefs held by those who believe the family is the cornerstone of society. It is a phrase most often associated with American conservatives.
Family values often overlap with conservative or small town values and include:
- Opposition to homosexual indoctrination
- Pro-life beliefs
- Belief in the importance of religion and prayer in everyday life
- An emphasis on truth and humility
- An emphasis on hard-work and strong personal character
- An emphasis on personal responsibility
- Belief that parents, and not government, know what is best for their children
- Emphasis on self reliance, as opposed to government handouts
Those who do not agree with these family values sometimes mock those who hold them, even going so far as to call values-holders racist or rednecks.
