This episode highlights the issues surrounding FAMILY: The family is a common unit that everyone shares. The acceptance of divorces, stay at home dads, gay, and multiracial families has drastically changed the idea of �The American Family� since the days of Leave it to Beaver.  In a Jordanian family, the male head makes the decisions and the long-standing tradition of arranged marriages remains. Young people explore the idea of family values. What makes a strong family? Does gender play a role? How do our families shape us and the societies that we live in?

SNAP is a series of interactive television specials for people aged 16 to 22.  Youth-oriented programs, including short animations and international music videos, are interspersed with live conversations among viewers, hosts, callers and a �virtual audience� of webcammers.   The program solicits young viewers to participate in discussions on issues that matter in their lives -- inviting them to connect using whatever device they want -- email, cell phone, telephone, and web-cam.  Two �chat jockeys� sit at the nexus of a connection machine in the live TV studio. Each day special guests are invited to add their personal experiences to the mix.

SNAP is designed to expose its Generation Y viewers to new ways of thinking and to help bridge the gap between themselves and their peers worldwide by using the medium of the media.  It shows young adults and teens how people their age are making a difference in their lives and communities, giving them a venue to share their thoughts and connect on the air and on the web, in an open and uncensored manner.
