family harmony

Relatives getting along

Family harmony describes a state of peaceful, cooperative relationships among relatives living together or connected by kinship.

It suggests an absence of conflict and the presence of mutual respect, understanding, and emotional support within the household.

The phrase often appears in discussions of domestic life, parenting, and cultural values that prioritize collective well-being over individual desires.

We try to maintain family harmony by having weekly dinners together.
