Synopsis
Social welfare policies are designed to improve not just working conditions but also the quality of one's private life, as demonstrated in these three short documentary segments about family life.
1. Young married couples receive financial assistance and encouragment as they begin to build a family of their own.
2. Health resorts and spa towns improve medical care offerings for treating a variety of ailments.
3. Subsidized vacation hotels with supervised activities for children make getting away more affordable and practical for large families.
