Our family teaches us how to function in the world. It should provide love and warmth to all of its members. A strong family gives its members the support.
It is relatively easy to understand the structure of a family system but more difficult to understand the inner workings of how that system functions. Let’s start with a simple explanation of the family system structure.
For a family to mature as a system they must have a healthy emotional system in place. As with any family system, the adults set the tone for how the emotional structure of the family will develop and be maintained.
The goal of any family system is to build into the individual relationships of each person in a way that breeds cooperation, respect, kindness and love. Parents much model this behavior if they want their children to follow that line of thinking. It’s take deliberate effort, but the payoff of having a family system that is healthy and vibrant is worth the effort.
