Family Wellbeing

HKFWS is committed to enhancing family wellbeing. The Society helps families to understand the status of their family wellbeing by conducting socially relevant and culturally appropriate research such as the Hong Kong Family Wellbeing Index. Based on their own research, we have created an online self-assessment tool covering six family domains that enable anyone to benchmark their own family wellbeing to further understand their own family situation. We also provide professional advice to enhance the family wellbeing of the general public.

Family Health

I found that my wife has been troubled by our children’s academic performance recently. She can’t eat well and loses interest in other things. Do you have any suggestions to improve the situation?


You are a caring husband if you noticed the change in your wife. What she cares about the most is her children's academic performance. If you want to help, you can ask your wife if there’s any tasks she can share with you to relieve her of some pressure. Your participation can make her feel your support. Moreover, you can see if there are any snacks that your wife loves. You can buy them to cheer her up. If someone in your family can take care of the children, you can invite your wife for a walk after a meal or when the child is asleep, so you two can spare time for a quality talk.
