Function in society

Sorry, my blog is really late but I think that the functionalism theory does a better job at explaining how society continues to operate. I think that we all do have a function in society and with everyone having a certain function,society is able to function and meet the needs/goals that society needs to survive. Mrs. Basi gave us the example that her function in
society is being a teacher and a mother. By being a teacher, she is able to teach us and by being a mother, she is able to take care of her son. Without this order in society, there would not be as much order as we have with everyone having their specific function.
