The old Turkish family structure is a type of family consisting of mother, father, and children, which is called nuclear family. Although it is a type of family based on father’s dominancy, it is necessary to state that the father does not have unlimited rights and that he has a caring and protective role over the family members with some rights and responsibilities. The Turkish family order is based on blood relationship and the pedigree passes from father to son. Women have some duties and rights within the family. In this sense, it is different from patriarchal family types that are observed in other societies. Some beliefs and applications within family order have had reflections especially on religious and social life.
