Since the patrilineal family system has been strictly maintained in rural China,only the son can stay at home after marriage to continue the family blood line,assume the responsibility of supporting his parents and enjoy the right to inherit the family property,thus ensuring the inheritance and continuation of the family.Matrilocal residence,on the other hand,rarely gets due recognition and respect in the family,clan and community.Moreover,in the era of high fertility rate,the proportion of families without sons was very low,so the unwanted marriage was rare both in history and in reality in China.With the implementation of the family planning policy,the long-term low fertility rate has led to a rapid rise in the proportion of boyless families,and the popularity of the concept of freedom of marriage.In recent years,the number of marriages in rural areas has gradually increased,and Matrilocal residence has become a group that cannot be ignored in the studies of social work,sociology and demography.Matrilocal residence face because of the change of the living environment and produce a series of problems,such as in the son in law by adoption of the employment problem,how to deal with "Weng Xu" "new old" relations,how to get along well with your partner,how to deal with the issue of child care and education,how can have a good parent-child relationship,etc.,these problems to their life has brought new challenges,Whether it is handled properly or not is directly related to the family integration quality of Matrilocal residence.Through in-depth interview and survey of Matrilocal residence group in A village and questionnaire survey of Matrilocal residence group through the Internet,this paper learned that Matrilocal residence group has A passive integration situation at the individual level.First of all,most of Matrilocal residence master son in law by adoption place,communicate with family members is disorder,explore why not grasp difficult local dialect,but because Matrilocal residence due to face difficult to open learning,coupled with Matrilocal residence generally choose outdoor-workers later,in the local time is less,the lack of language use of the environment;Secondly,in the aspect of family relations,they generally do not handle the relationship with their families well,especially with their in-laws in terms of the concept of reproduction there is a huge difference.Due to the strict family planning policy in their era,they have no sons,so they want to get compensation from the next generation.They hope that the in-laws will be able to have more children after becoming pregnant,so as to satisfy their wish of "having no children and more grandchildren".Matrilocal residence are reluctant to have more children because of their weak employment ability and huge pressure to support the family.The contradiction between the two is difficult to reconcile.Finally,there is a lack of social support and security in social relations,because the change of living environment leads to the change of their social circle,it is difficult to establish their own peer relations in the local,married life is generally faced with difficulties.Combined with the results of the survey,choose typical case as a case work service object,by the method of increasing power theory and case work,help promote self-worth of the service object and service object initiative into consciousness,improve the service object of the family relationship,create a good family atmosphere,as the service object of the family into create conditions,improve the well-being of the service object life.The application of empowerment theory is to provide case service from three aspects: enhancing the self-development ability of the service objects,improving the family relations of the service objects and perfecting the social support network of the service objects,so as to arouse the self-awareness of the service objects,give full play to the initiative of the service objects and actively integrate into the family.
