An Analysis Of A Family's Life

While reading The Family Crucible, the authors made it feel like I was watching a life-time television series. There were several high points and low points during the family therapy session that left me unsure of how the show would end. This book takes you on a journey using family counseling to help a family heal and communicate better with one another.

The main focus was on the family member with the issue and not on the parents or other family members. In the book the authors used different theories and approaches during the counseling sessions which were quite interesting. This process after time enabled the family to look at the journey they were on in order to understand how the family, as a whole, should function.

“I’ll see you later,” Marlene said, hanging up the phone. Picking up her cell, she said, “Frank, they want me to come down to the station and answer more questions.”

I previously was given the opportunity to discuss the family I grew up in. At first I felt that my family was just like everyone else and it would not be enough interesting details to brag about. Now I know that every family is unique. I can sociologically analyze my family. A family, kinship, family values and family ties create own identity so that can better connect with other individuals in society. Family is an important social structure. A social structure are social norm that hold society together. It matters to society what kind of family you have.

I’m going to tell you about one of my friends, Sumi, and her family, who live right next to my apartment. We have been neighbors for many years.

So, when she was a child, she got more toys than normal, and she used to share toys with me. She is the one who taught me play chess and always gives me a shoulder to cry on when I need emotional support.

Cooper has successfully eaten half of a water bottle, a cow bone, pens, his own collar while it was on him, he’s chewed up socks, shirts, and tubes of mascara and much more. Cooper is a small black, Miniature Toy Poodle, that enjoys being an inconvenience too keeping things in their rightful spot.
