阅读下面短文，根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。
In some cultures it is common for the extended family to live together, while in other cultures it is more common for the nuclear family (parents and children only) to live away from the extended family.In my culture，and in my family, it is quite common for the extended family to live together; my grandmother and one of my aunts actually live in the same house with my parents and brothers and sisters, and several other aunts and uncles live on the same block.Though it may not always be perfect when an extended family is living together, there are several good reasons why living in doing the extended family is preferable to living with only the nuclear family.
One possible reason is that if the extended family lives together, it is possible for the family members to help in doing the daytoday work of the family, particularly in raising the children.Children require a lot of attention, and it takes a lot of work to raise them well.Grandparents who live as part of the extended family can be very helpful with all of the work that it takes to raise children.In addition, grandparents can be very helpful in ensuring the children as much attention as possible.
More important than the help with the daily work of running a family is the role of older members of the extended family, such as grandparents, in maintaining family traditions.Grandparents who live with the younger generation are important because they can ensure that the younger generation knows the family heritage, where the family came from, and how it got to be the way that it is.Grandparents living with the extended family can also be instrumental in maintaining family traditions and ensuring that they will be passed on to future generations.
