Family Relationships In The Odyssey And The Coen Brothers
1. Family Relationships In The Odyssey And The Coen Brothers
Homer and the Coen brothers were trying to communicate many messages to the audience in their
respective pieces, Homer, with a popular book called The Odyssey and the Coen brothers with the
film adaptation, O Brother, Where Art Thou? Although the movie and book have their differences,
one thing in common is their take on family relationships. In both works, the main characters
realized they were missing their families, and made it their first priority to return home to mend
unresolved issues. Homer and the Coen brothers were trying to say that in order to have a healthy
relationship with your family, it's necessary to be present and focused without distractions. In order
to have a relationship with the people you love, you need to be there for them. If you can't commit
to your family, then problems are inevitable. Relationships take work and time and attention, which
is exactly what Odysseus failed to provide his family with. In the beginning of The Odyssey, we find
that Odysseus had been gone for twenty long years and that he abandoned his wife and son to
participate in the Trojan War. Back in Ithaca, Penelope and Telemakhus are suffering the
consequences of Odysseus' absence. If Odysseus was more ... Show more content on

3. Sibling Relationships And Family Relationships
Introduction
When looking at relationships, whether marital, parent–child, sibling, or peer relationships, they
each enforce different demands through interactions with one another (Aksan, Goldsmith, Essex, &
Vandell, 2013). One relationship that has the longest interaction is sibling relationships, it is
arguably the longest relationship an individual experiences and it can continue through the lifespan
(Cicirelli, 1995). As the siblings grow their relationship becomes more egalitarian than other family
relationships (Cicirelli, 1995) and it becomes more voluntary (Floyd, 1995). Thus, while looking at
families most people grow up with a sibling. The relationship between those siblings can be marked
with rivalry and conflict, nevertheless it can also be the closest and most intimate relationship that
person has throughout their life (Buhrmester & Furman, 1990). However, siblings are among the
least studied relationships when compared to parent–sibling relationships and children's peer
relationships (Spitze & Trent, 2006). This could be due to researchers suggesting that siblings will
have little contact or influence on each other after childhood (Cicirelli, 1995).
Although there have been studies done about siblings from their communicative messages to their
gender, age, lifespan, conflict, and closeness levels. None of the previous studies have examined
specifically how closeness (emotional and behavioral) evolves after one sibling leaves for college.

5. Interpersonal Relationship With My Family
Practical Example of Theory My family happens to be deeply religious, conservative and often
closed minded about certain aspects of life. In other words, everything that they tend to support and
believe in as a family unit, tends to be something I can not personally agree with. As anyone can
imagine, this has deeply affected my interpersonal relationship with my family in a negative impact.
As an adult, I have come to my own conclusions about my personal beliefs about life and what those
entail for myself. These beliefs are usually the exact opposite of what I grew up with, much to the
disappointment of my family which has created a deep divide between us. This has probably
affected my relationship with my father the most, as he has always been the most outspoken about
his disappointment.
For my father this has been rather difficult to accept because to him, I have violated my family's
beliefs by turning my back on religion and wanting no part of it in my personal life. It is simply
something he can not comprehend, to him it means turning my back on my family and everything I
have known. Years ago when I was a teenager, I confided in him that I wanted nothing to do with the
church anymore and he chalked it up to teenage youth. Nowadays, my interpersonal relationship
with my father has been strained because he has finally understood that I had actually been serious
all along. In fact, when it was brought up again when I was an adult and when I had given him the

7. Sibling Relationships And Family Relationships
Over time the relationships you have with your siblings change, you can start out not liking each
other and then in later life being to love or tolerate each other ("Brothers, Sisters and Aging
Parents", 2014). Late adulthood is defined as being over the age of sixty–five (Later Adulthood,
n.d.). The sibling relationships is forced relationships that are maintained by the siblings to foster a
lifelong relationship (Martin, Anderson, & Rocca, 2005). Siblings play very different roles for each
other, friend, competitor, manager, and teacher (as cited in Martin et al., 2005). Sibling relationships
can be of three different types: Brother and brother, sister and sister, and brother and sister, all three
will be discussed. Brother and Brother relationships out of the three types seem to have the least
amount of telephone contact of all the types (Spitze & Trent, 2006). Tend to help each other more
with giving help to each other than receiving help from each other, brothers tend to help with giving
advice over helping each other with transportation (Spitze & Trent, 2006). Brothers would rather
receive help with child care then be the brother providing the child care (Spitze & Trent, 2006).
Brother relationships tend to be completive with each other trying to outdo each other. Brothers tend
to visit each other about three times a month (Spitze & Trent, 2006). Brothers tend to help each
other with repairs more than any other sibling type (Spitze &Trent, 2006). Sister and

9. Family Relationships In The Simpson
Family relationships are a common theme in novels or television shows. One of the most famous
and successful contemporary animated sitcoms in television is "The Simpsons" which portrays the
family and its dynamics in a very satirical way. Before " The Simpson" appeared on television, the
traditional American family of the 1950s was considered as the perfect one. It was a patriarchal
family where the father went to work, the mother raised the children while taking care of the
household and the children behaved well and did always the right thing. Indeed, the American
family of the 1950's was considered as an efficient structure where positive values and morals,
including a deep belief in God and in the Country, played an important ... Show more content on

It portrays a typical, blue collar family where the main character is Homer, a father and a husband
who is described as a lazy couch potato. His wife, Marge does not work; she stays at home where
she takes care of him and their children, Bart, Lisa and Maggie. Everyday Homer spends most of his
time at the bar or in the nuclear station, where he works as a safety inspector, while Marge brings
the children to school, and then takes care of the house. Bart is a trouble maker, a rebel who does not
respect his parents, Lisa is a very intelligent as well as a star student. Despite lacking some qualities
of the typical American father of the 50's, Homer fulfils his role because he is the breadwinner of his
family. As a matter of fact the financial security of his family depends fully on him. He is always
stressed and makes many mistakes, but always lands on his feet, also thanks to the support of all his
family members. Furthermore , even though there are continuous conflicts within the family, it
always ends up well for them. According to me, the Simpsons represents a happy family because

11. Relationship Between Family And Family
Introduction
Many would agree that the dynamics of the family structure have changed drastically. Families are
faced with many challenges, often times outside intervention is necessary in coping with the
plethora of issues families face. We are living in a time of increased racial tensions, stress, bullying,
domestic violence, mental illness, same–sex marriage, drug abuse, increased divorce rates, blended
families, and cohabitation. The use of Marriage and family therapists appears to be increasing.
According to Gladding, (2004), 56.9 million people utilized marriage and family therapists. This
paper will discuss the understanding of marriage and family therapists and the family life cycle. In
addition the blended family is discussed as it relates to the role of the marriage, and family
counselor. An overview of the preventative wellness measures that could apply to preblended
families is also reviewed.
Understanding of the family life cycle as it applies to counselors working with couples and families.
My understanding of the family life cycle as it applies to counselors is that it is complex and a direct
correlation between the fit of the therapists life stage along with the family (Gladding, 2004). As a
therapist and /or counselor, consideration must be given to the life cycle stage of the family as well

13. The Importance Of Family Relationships
Having a relationship is like having a wall for support, like having someone to lean on. A
relationship needs trust, loyalty, and respect. Without these, the relationship will not succeed.
Relationships need hard work and dedication, nothing good will come from an easy relationship.
Although completely different, each type of relationship shows importance to the social growth of
people. In life, people encounter many different types of relationships: family, casual, intimate, and
friendships.
Family forms the first bond anyone will ever encounter, because blood is thicker than water. Family
builds future relations. Humans learn how to love and care for people from their families
(Ransohoff, 2013). Nancy Brown, educator, and Julia Ransohoff, medical doctor student at Stanford,
state "family is defined as a domestic group of people with some degree of kinship," (Ransohoff,
2013). Family includes blood, marriage, and adoption (Ransohoff, 2013). Although not every family
includes all of these. A blended family may not involve blood or adoption, or a traditional family
only includes marriage and adoption. People consider these relations, family, because even though a
blood tie does not exist, those people still grew up together. Sure, some go through a difficult
transition, but for others, they make it through without an ounce of complication. To keep a family
relationship healthy, everyone must work at it (Ransohoff, 2013). Some people see traditional

Families Influence
A person's relationship with their family can greatly impact that person's life and decisions.
Relationship between the family members can also change a person's fate. In stories and poems like
Sonny's Blues, The Third bank by The River, and Picture Pride, the author or the main character in
the story have experiences with their family members that influence how they think and feel. The
experiences can be life changing in both a positive and a negative way.
In the poem Picture Pride, by Cathy Song, the author of the story is questioning his grandmother
arranged marriage. Knowing her grandmother her grandmother experiences, the author writes "she
was a year younger than I/ twenty–three when she left Korea/ did she simply chose the door on her
father's house and walked away/... she arrived to look into the face of the stranger who was her
husband, thirteen years older than she." these stanzas shows and highlights parts of the over–all
poem and its main idea. The author questions her grandmother about her experiences while trying to
imagine how she felt. The first line states that the grandmother at the time of her marriage, was a
year younger than the author when she wrote the poem. This shows a kind of identification that the
author is trying to accomplish with her grandmother. Ultimately, the author is trying to achieve this
connection to learn from the grandmother's experiences. This is an example of family members

17. Secrets : The Importance Of Secrets And Family Relationships
Secrets, while sometimes necessary, can be detrimental to relationships, specifically family
relationships. A secret, defined as being "kept from knowledge or view" can take on many forms,
including those that are necessary for one's wellbeing, those that are done for personal reasons, and
those that are in the interest of the person keeping the secret. Family systems are built on a fragile
network of trust, honesty, integrity, and love, and without any one of these it all falls apart. When a
secret sneaks its way into a family, it can cause very unfavorable outcomes for everyone involved.
Firstly, the reasons for keeping a secret, may have to do with power. "One–upmanship" (Karpel) is a
way of using a secret, to keep power over another. Knowing something that someone else is
unaware of, gives you a sense of power, and a feeling of power is always strived for. Hierarchy,
especially in a family setting, can make it easier to have secrecy between family members, because
of the need to be smarter than the rest. Many times, secrets, come with a sense of shame, and
therefore need to be concealed. And lastly, protection is key in secret–keeping, usually to protect
another person, but sometimes even yourself.
"Don't tell your mother or father, it'll kill them," taken from the scholarly article written by Karpel,
he starts off with the conceptual and ethical issues that correspond with secret keeping and secret
telling. He described three different types of secrets within a family:

19. Relationship Rules And Family Rules
Relationship Rules Theory
Interpersonal relationships are an essential part of everyone's life, like many other aspects of life.
Relationships are also bound by rules in order for these to succeed. However these rules vary
depending on the type of relationship a person has. Relationship rules theory is oriented to make
several aspects of relationships more clear. These rules help identify behaviors that can be either
destructive or successful in a relationship. Additionally, Relationship Rules help to single out more
specific reasons as why relationships end and what can be a solution to repair them. There are four
different types of relationship rules and those are friendship rules, romantic rules, family rules and
workplace rules. Each of these relationship rules has different functions and these rules cannot be
broken in order for a relationship to stay healthy.
Friendship Rules Friendship is a word that envelops powerful meanings that everyone should not
take for granted. Those meanings can be trust on others, love, support, care for others, compassion,
and/or loyalty. People give those meanings different levels depending on the type of friends they
have and how worth it those friends are. It is true that friends can be considered part of our own
family and they have to be loved and respected as such. Good friends are people that can be
trustworthy and understand the meaning of the word friendship.

21. My Family Relationship
A primary relationship in my life would have to be with my mother. This may sound a little strange;
however, I used to not be around my mother often. My mom and I had a bad relationship when I
was growing up. We fought constantly, or she was never home to support me. Despite this, my
mother and I have a very good relationship now. I tell her everything about my life and we go out to
lunch and mingle. She is very supportive, listens to my problems, and she tries to help me with my
needs. The fundamental attribution error states that there is an error in the explanation for another
person's behavior. My mom and I did not understand each other at all. She always thought that there
were external attributions affecting my behavior. However, they were internal. My mom did not
understand that others were not making me angry, it was her. She would ignore me and exclude me.
My mom and I used to argue non–stop about everything when I was growing up. For example, when
I was in seventh grade, I had recently bought my own perfume,. However, the perfume that I bought
was Axe women's perfume, which has a very strong fragrance. One day before school, I appently
sprayed a little too much of the perfume, and my mom did not like that. She started screaming at me
and we started to quarrle about my perfume. Eventually, my mom threw the can outside busting the

23. Assessment Of A Relationship With The Family
Assessment of Presenting Issues In the process of establishing a relationship with the family, there
occurs the assessment process. In the assessment stage, the counsellor collaborates with the family
to uncover the presenting problems. According to Hackney and Cormier (2013) problems may be
conceptualized in various ways: as needs, stressors, life conditions, misinterpretations, dysfunctional
social patterns, or a combination of these determinants. For Max's case I chose to utilize approaches
and techniques from Minuchin's Structural Family Theory for the assessment and
support/intervention stages. However, though the genogram in not a SFT techniques, it is a useful
rapport building and assessment tool.
Basic Genogram Both the process of creating a genogram and the content it holds have therapeutic
benefits. (Balaguer, Dunn, & Levitt, 2000). In this case I could use the genogram as therapeutic
alliance building tool as well as a way to observe the family dynamic. The main focus of the
genogram with this family would be to explore the triangles between Mary, Bill and Julie, by
looking at family history and presenting patterns. For this reason, this process would not include
Max. Using Bowen's collaborative approach, the clients would lead the process as they are the
experts of their own lives. Once the genogram has been constructed, I would invite the family to

25. Social Class And Family Relationships
We all have a family, but we all have grown up in a different way. Social class plays a huge role in
family life. Three of the connections between social class and family include kin, child rearing, and
education levels. To begin, kin is a part of the family, but there is a difference between kin ship
among the poor and near poor. Kin is an important part of the family life because it is the connection
between family and, sometimes, wealth. Who people associate in times of need and support greatly
influence their lives and surroundings. In families, the father is seen as the main economic
contributor and in crisis, a loss of a job, his authority will drop. This isn't the only loss he will face,
he will also have a decreased self–respect and other family members will treat him with less respect.
On the contrary, if women were to lose her job, there wouldn't be the same treatment. In areas of
chronic poverty, "young mothers rely less on marriage and more on other kinship ties for support"
(Cherlin, 2013, p. 127). The poor is more likely to reach out or support more distant relatives than
the other social classes. There is yet another difference between the nonpoor. "The core of kinship
among the nonpoor in the United States has been the conjugal family of wife, husband, and
children" (Cherlin, 2013, p. 128). Parents of the higher social class are expected to provide for
themselves and their children first and foremost. Any savings handed down are concentrated to their

27. The Confucian Family: The Five Great Relationships
Many religions base their beliefs off of the relationships created between oneself and a higher or
spiritual being in which the relationship that is shared is the most important one in life. But
according to Confucius, the most important relationships are those within the family or that create a
family dynamic; these are known as the "Five Great Relationships." These relationships also
correspond directly with the Confucian Virtues of ren/jen, li, xiao/hsiao, and shu. They are not only
applicable to the Confucian religion and culture, but I think they may fit well into twenty–first
century American culture due to their strict focus of family. The "Five Great Relationships" not only

Helpwriting.net ...
Xiao/Hsiao is often associated with the "Five Great Relationships" because it represents filial piety,
or the devotion of family members to one another. (Molloy, 235) Each relationship has rules of its
own, as well as rules that umbrella all of the relationships under one similar virtue. For example, li
is the virtue of proper practice or doing only what is appropriate. The eldest son has different
responsibilities than the youngest son, and it is crucial that their roles and responsibilities are visibly
separate, whether it is how they act, speak, or even dress; they must carry out their roles correctly.
Ren/jen, on the other hand, is the virtue of kindness, consideration, empathy, and/or sympathy.
(Molloy, 234) It represents putting the other person's needs before their own needs and being nice to
them overall. This virtue is followed the same way in every one of the "Five Great Relationships."
The final virtue, shu, has both its own set of rules as well as an overarching belief for all types of
relationships. It represents reciprocity, or considering the effects of one's actions towards others.
Although kindness and respect must always be reciprocated, the hierarchal level of the relationship
must also be considered. Overall, family members are accountable for following

29. Childhood Family Relationships
Parental–child relationships seem to be linked to the health of an individual as they continue through
adulthood. Relationships that are comforting and emotionally important in a child's life are linked to
better overall health in the lifespan of an individual. In this article review, there will be a continual
referral to the behavior model depicted in Chen, Brody, and Miller's article on Childhood Close
Family Relationships and Health (CITE). "...this model proposes that characteristics of family
relationships including support, conflict, obligation, and parenting behaviors evolve and change
from childhood to adolescence. These characteristics, when considered in conjunction with
developmental needs, govern whether childhood family relationships are based on balance positive
enough to fill a moderating role in which they mitigate the effects that childhood adversities have on
physical health."
Studies on the main effects of childhood family relationships on health have done much to show a
definitive correlation between childhood family conflicts and poor health. Specifically, conflicts or
adversities such as emotional abuse, physical abuse, and sexual abuse toward a child, parental
mental health, parental substance abuse problems, and parental divorce have a been linked to poor
health in adult individuals (CITE!!!). There have been a been studies on both the negative and

At the beginning of the play, Lear creates some type of love test for his three girls to show which
one loved him the most in return for a part of his kingdom. His first two daughters Goneril and
Regan kiss up to him and profess their unending love for him. Cordelia decides to not play their
fathers game while expressing how words could not explain the love she so dearly had for him. King
Lear gets offended by her response and instantly decides to not give her a part of his kingdom or
inheritance and renounces her. The compromised essential family value in this situation is
acceptance. Cordelia was not given any type of love and sense of importance during and after the
discord she had with her father. As a family, that sense of belonging is essential for bonding and
assurance that they will always have a place in the family in spite of any disagreements. Parents
learn to respect, adapt to their child's emotions and continue playing their role as a loving parent. If

stepfamilies may sometimes have lack of parental warmth and negative interactions, which leads to
disruptiveness and/or antisocial behaviors. It takes time for the adolescent to adjust to the loss of a
parent in a household.
Adolescents will experience their custodial parent being unavailable, which makes the adolescent
feel like they have no parental support. Also, they will deal with stress not only from the divorce but
from remarrying. The adolescent who has a relationship with a non – parental adult, friends, or an
attachment to school may counterpoise a stressful environment. Researchers found that girls are
more likely to confide in friends about their situation at home. Boys tend to spend time with their
friends without sharing what is on their mind, or spend time by themselves. Building a relationship
with others as such as neighbors will increase the chance of the adolescent not having a negative
outcome. Adolescents in divorced or blended families will be more likely to experience negative
outcomes, because of the lack of parental support (Rodgers & Rose, 2002).

In this skills session my client brought her relationship with her mother and her feelings about that
relationship. She brought feelings of "sadness" "hurt" "upset" and "grief". She states early in the
session "I'm constantly searching for some sort of love" and "affection from her". She describes
feeling neglected and disregarded by her mother and the rest of her family. She admits that these
feelings have "stretched into the rest of her life" and have left her feeling "unworthy" "not good
enough" and like she "doesn't matter". She states that she feels "not worthy of affection" or "care" or
"regard". My client was questioning why her mother behaves the way she does towards her. She
finds her mother's behaviour "difficult to understand" and feels she doesn't "understand where it's
coming from". During the session my client describes her mother's behaviour in a particular scenario
when she felt her mother behaved differently when she had an audience to play to. My client
described feeling "ganged up on" by her mother, who was "backed up" by her visiting relatives. It is
clear my client wants a relationship with her mother and states this clearly when asked. She is
seeking answers "what is going on", "what is going on with this attitude?" My client states that she
has suffered with feelings of being "unworthy" for "most of her life" and suffered a nervous
breakdown two years ago after which she sought help from counselling and her GP. Considering
what I have outlined above it would appear that my client's feelings of being unworthy and of not
being good enough arise from feeling that she doesn't matter to, or is disregarded by her mother and
other family members. It would appear that my client's evaluation of her self worth or self–esteem
has been affected by her close family relationships. Carl Rogers (1959, p200 & p223) describes the
development of the self–concept (how an individual perceives themselves) and how this self–
concept is heavily influenced by the conditions of self worth set out by others. Conditions of worth
are constraints or preconditions, which an individual perceives are placed upon them by individuals
external to them. The individual believes that these preconditions must be satisfied or

43. The Role Of Family And Caretakers Relationships
Bipolar disorder is a mood disorder that often leads to a disruptive lifestyle. It is a subgroup of
bipolar I which is manic and depressive episodes and bipolar II which is hypomanic and depressive
episodes. However, very little research has been done in terms of how this disorder impacts family
members and caretakers. The rationale behind this topic is to examine some of the research done
involving strengths and struggles of family and caretakers relationships. The articles that will be
discussed include: Family Functioning in the Context of Parental Bipolar Disorder: Association with
Offspring Age, Sex, and Psychopathology, Relatives' Emotional Involvement Moderates the Effects
of Family Therapy for Bipolar, and In sickness and in health: The experiences of friends and
relatives caring for people with manic depression.
While reading these articles I noticed many of them had similar themes. One of the common themes
throughout these articles is the need to continuously do more research and provide more resources
for the caretakers. Another recurring topic in the articles was the importance family relationships
have on the individual with bipolar disorder and their outcomes with treatment, along with how
these interactions affect the other members of the family. A strength that was present in each article
was the depth of detail presented in each study; this description will make it easier to replicate the

45. Nonverbal Communication And Relationships With Family Members
Relationships are no walk in the park. If you want relationships to work everyone involved needs to
put in the work to communicate and work at keeping the relationship going. In my essay about
relationship stages I will discuss nonverbal communication in relationships, romantic relationships
and, relationships with family members. Nonverbal communication is a way to communicate
without speaking and communicating verbally. According to McCornack, "we define nonverbal
communication as the intentional or unintentional transmission of meaning through an individuals
non–spoken physical and behavioral cues" (211). In relationships, an outsider can observe two
people and tell what kind of relationship they share without hearing the way they speak to each
other. Nonverbal communication is just as important as verbal communication. Nonverbal
communication crucially serves to create intimacy between two people (McCornack, 234).
According to McCornack intimacy is "the feeling of closeness and "union" that exists between us
and our partners" (234). I feel that young people, including myself, think that being intimate goes
with having sex. I was corrected by a teacher in high school who shared with me that being intimate
with someone is not having sex. Since then I have felt like I have had intimate relationships with not
only my boyfriend but my best friend of 9 years. I share a bond with my best friend that is not like
any other friendship I have. We self–disclose, and we have a

seriously and wouldn't care. Relationships can make people stronger and also people can make them
miserable. People can have a bad relationship with their family. For example, the story, ¨Without

49. Family And Family : The Relationship Between Parents And...
The relationships between parents and children depend in large part on the social context in which
the family lives. Thus, the ability of parents to care for them and successfully educate their children
depends on the extent to which parents and children maintain connections with others outside the
home, as well as the way in which external forces penetrate the home and regulate the Interactions
These connections or links with the social environment are important, since they allow individuals
to satisfy needs in everyday situations or crisis. The absence or insufficiency of social support in
families constitutes a significant risk for the deterioration of their internal relations, because as
different studies suggest, families where child abuse occurs lack a secure line, that is, at particularly
stressful times They have means of escape, friends or relatives to turn to for help. That is why many
parents who leave their countries where they have their friends and family, to go to another country
where they will be alone and will not have the support of anyone is a very stressful situation. Many
families come from other countries to the United States to provide a better life for their children, but
often the little time they can devote to their children due to work can end in their children getting
out of hand.

The Lindsay family is a total of five: Chris, Kristy, Christopher, Gabrielle, and Zoi. They have faced
several deployments to Iraq and Afghanistan. Also, the father, Chris, has recently arrived back to his
family, and unfortunately found out he has posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). PTSD is a disorder
that develops when people have experienced a traumatic event. Mr. Lindsay (2017) stated, "I
sometimes relive the moments that my friends have passed right in front of me." While sitting there
listening, it was heartbreaking. In the life of someone with PTSD, they tend to be on edge quite a
bit. Chris has left birthday parties immediately because a balloon popped. Also, when his children
are being really loud he calmly tells them to settle down, and sits out side until he is ready to return.
Although he has coped efficiently with this disorder, many PTSD victims cope with their disorder
with alcohol, drugs, and abuse. However, I will say that this family has coped really well with this
situation. Also, another big difference is that they have a smaller family than mine, but they want it
to grow. So, therefore, there are a lot of differences between the Lindsay family and my family.

Family Development Theory In the Netflix original series, Ozark, Marty Byrde, a financial advisor
from Chicago, a husband, and a father of two teenagers embarks on a calculated yet risky decision
with his business partner to venture in money laundering with a Mexican drug cartel. Byrde even

This new business relationship unravels into a new sense of status for him and his family, as they

55. Assessment Of A Relationship With The Family
Assessment of Presenting Issues In the process of establishing a relationship with the family, there
occurs the assessment process. In the assessment stage, the counsellor collaborates with the family
to uncover the presenting problems. According to Hackney and Cormier (2013) problems may be
conceptualized in various ways: as needs, stressors, life conditions, misinterpretations, dysfunctional
social patterns, or a combination of these determinants. For Max's case I chose to utilize approaches
and techniques from Minuchin's Structural Family Theory for the assessment and
support/intervention stages. However, though the genogram in not a SFT techniques, it is a useful
rapport building and assessment tool.
Basic Genogram Both the process of creating a genogram and the content it holds have therapeutic

alliance building tool as well as a way to observe the family dynamic. The main focus of the
genogram with this family would be to explore the triangles between Mary, Bill and Julie, by
looking at family history and presenting patterns. For this reason, this process would not include
Max. Using Bowen's collaborative approach, the clients would lead the process as they are the

57. My Family Relationship
Once a close friendship is built with someone, eventually, a relationship with their mothers has to be
established; whether it is a close or just a comfortable relationship. We all have felt or acted a certain
way toward our friends' mothers. The friendships I have established with some of my friend's moms
are handled at different extremities, ranging from "nice weather we're having" to the coffee talks.
Each has a different personality that allows us to classify them into certain groups; some are cool
like the one you are unusually close to. There are also those mothers in which you try to limit
conversation like the one that thinks she is cool and the one that barely partakes in verbal
interactions, the strict mom. The mother you are unusually close to could have heart–to–hearts with
you even when your friend is not present for a long period of time. You could easily talk about
politics, your lifestyle, etc. If she were the same age as you, it is likely the two of you would be
close friends who hang out all the time. She welcomes you into the family and her home always.
The way she dresses is classy chic; she wears black heels from Louis Vuitton, skinny faux leather
pants, and a red flowy shirt. My friend's mom never failed to welcome me excitingly at the door,
especially when we haven't seen each other in a while. Needless to say, I was very excited to go to
her house mainly because I wanted to see her mom. It was an unusual "friendship" her mother and I

59. Importance Of Family Relationships
The connection of various individual by marriage, blood, etc are considered as family relationships.
Moreover, these connections are considered to be the most important building block for the
comprehensive development of individuals in our society. Family relationships, whether they may
be harmonious or disruptive, serves as an important driving force for all individuals interactions in
the outside world. While, these relationships may either be destructive or harmonious, they promote
the transmission of good behaviours, cultural influences and other specific ways of life from the
older to the younger members of the family unit. Harmonious relationships are more pleasing and
consistently allows members of the family to feel more comfortable. Also, a strong bond is formed
among the family members. On the other hand, destructive family relationships builds and maintain
tension between the individuals, which ultimately prevents the proper transfer of good values and
attitudes to the members. This type of relationship can be directly attributed to the future problems
faced by individuals nurtured by the a disruptive family. In "Two Kind" by Amy Tan and "Story of
the Hour" by Kate Chopin, family relationships plays an important role in the outcome of an

67. Characteristics Of Family Relationships
A famous poet Joseph Brodsky once said, "Cherish your human connections: your relationships with
friends and family." I am Milagro Falcon my sisters' opposite, my mothers' follower, and my friends'
deepest supporter. A relationship can constitute many things not just a romantic relationship. As a
young adult I still have not had a romantic relationship with someone yet that does not mean I do
not have other relationships. I do have a certain relationship with my family and friends thus my
relationship personality and relationship personality traits differ. There are various theories and
terms that can explain the characteristics of a relationship. An example would be friendship love
which is love based on common concerns and interests, companionship, and respect for the partner's
personality and character. As a young adult social learning theory has shaped my mom's views into
my own leading to sibling rivalry bringing more flavor to the family, also my relationship with my
friends has spurred as altruistic love.
What is social learning theory and how has it shaped my relationships? Social learning theory as
described in the book Intimate Relationships, Marriages, and Families by Nick Stinnett states it is a
theory that suggests behaving in relationships by modeling their parents' behaviors and attitudes. To
me it means the way a person's parents acted in a relationship thus the child mirrors in later
relationships. My mother has taught me the basics like do not eat my buggers and eat with my
mouth closed everything parents basically teach a child. Nevertheless, the core values I learned from
her relationship with my father is to be independent, and communication is key. I did not have a
male figure in my life till I was six years old. At that age I started to see what a family is like and the
foundation of one. I quickly saw the difference from when it was just my mother and I. Before
seeing my mom in a relationship, I had already seen the sense of independence and it just moved
along in the relationship. My mother did not go to school, but she never depended on a man. Even

are the stove was busy in the absence of human beings. Though the stove was meant to cook for four
people, those people were absent although the cooking was on–going. It implies that the

one foreign–born parent, and also foreign–born children who immigrated to this country. Whether
they are first immigrants or second generation, Latino youth deals with different levels of
acculturation and the stress that this process brings. Realizing that acculturation plays an important
role in the Latino families, a number of studies have examined the negative effects that acculturation
stress brings to adolescents and family relationships, including behavioral problems, perceived
discrimination, ethnic identity, depression symptoms, and substance abuse. Let's start by
understanding the concept of acculturation and the stress associated with it. Acculturation is a
process by which individuals obtain the practices, values, and identity from the receiving culture–in
this case the United States' culture–while at the same time conserving those associated with their
own heritage. Naturally, this bi–dimensional process represents an added stress for Latino families
as they have to learn to function efficiently under a different physical environment, an unfamiliar
