This document discusses different family structures such as nuclear, single-parent, extended, and childless families. It also covers parental authority styles like authoritative parenting and theories of social learning. Students are asked to create a genogram tracing physical, personality, or behavioral attributes through generations and reflect on the characteristics passed down from their own family. The learning objectives are to appraise one's family structure and care received, identify firm and gentle sides of family influence, and make a genogram.

5. Different Types of Families
Nuclear Family Single Parent Family
Extended Family Childless Family

6. NUCLEAR FAMILY
• It is composed of a father, a
mother, and their offspring/s.
• Usually, the father in the traditional
family plays the role of the
breadwinner while the mother stays
at home to manage the house and
the children.
• Adopted children are also considered
as part of the nuclear or traditional
family.
• The values, skills, and behavior are
directly learned from the parents.

7. SINGLE PARENT FAMILY
• The single parent rears the child or
children while earning for the offspring/s
• They may be supported by relatives or
caregivers to take care of the growing
children.
• The absence of one parent may create an
impact on the growing child who would
normally look up to authority as role
model.

8. EXTENDED FAMILY
• The extended family is the
nuclear family plus the parents
of either husband of the wife, or
both their parents, depending
on the arrangements they make.
• Extended families have both
positive and negative influences
on the child.

9. CHILDLESS FAMILY
• The childless family is just
the couple without any child
or children, and who may be
living all by themselves.

10. PARENTAL AUTHORITY AND
PARENTING STYLES
• Authoritative parenting is a key
factor in the psychosocial of an
adolescent, and it is believed to
foster a healthy and positive
impact on the adolescent’s
development. (Papalia and
Feldman, 2012)

11. PARENTAL AUTHORITY AND
PARENTING STYLES
• Authoritative parents are
those who insist on their
child learning important
values, norms, and rules, but
are also willing to sit down
and negotiate with them
should they resist.

12. PARENTAL AUTHORITY AND
PARENTING STYLES
• Authoritative parenting is
about exercising control
over a child’s behavior but
not the child’s emotions,
beliefs, and self-concept.

13. ALBERT BANDURA’S THEORY OF
SOCIAL LEARNING
• Learning takes place through
observation.
• Mental states are important to
learning.
• Not all learning can lead to changes
in behavior.

14. FAMILY HEREDITY
• Obesity or leanness
• Predispositions to certain diseases
are often believed to be passed on
from generation to generations.
• Intelligence
• There is 40% to 50% chance of
personality traits being passed on
through heredity

15. GENOGRAM
•It is a graphical map of a family’s history that
traces and illustrates patterns in its structures
and characteristics using special symbols to
describe relationships, major events, diseases,
traditions, social and personal beliefs, value
systems and the dynamics of a family over
several generations.
