To most families have traditions that are very important to them because it shows their heritage and where they came from. Some traditions are also part of their culture and religion which mean alot to people in many ways like the way their ancestors used to live back then. However other family traditions aren't really part of their religion but mainly about family like when a relavite passes something down to you that belonged to their ancestor a long time of go. Althought there are many traditions that people do today some are every old but thats what makes a tradition does it not? To me traditions aren't really that old or not necessary because traditions are somethings that families and people create so they celebrate something important to them or just for fun. Just for example on July the 4th many people celebrate it because it is important to them cause it is the day the United States of America got their independence from Great Britian or for families just to get together to have fun and celebrate. Another example is Chirstmas many people celebrated this holiday but in different ways and have different traditions. tongue
