In the same way corporate entities have detailed corporate governance rules they adhere to, the most enduring family businesses also require a clear framework that details the principles, governance protocols and interlocking roles in relation to the family business, the family office or family trusts. A Family Constitution (also known as Family Protocol or Family Charter) is a written statement that articulates the vision and values of the family and important principles and boundaries for working together and for governing and managing the family business. It is a decision making tool that is intended to help the family stay together and avoid the kind of devastating disruption and damage that disputes and unforeseen events can cause.
The first eight chapters we reviewed from the book Public and Private Families: An Introduction gives us a foundation in comparing and studying the family from a sociologist’s view. Written by Andrew J Cherlin, a Sociology Professor at Johns Hopkins University. As a class we discussed several key points taken from these chapters and reflected how these concepts pertain to our life whether it be our family directly or observations of other family dynamics. I found Cherlin’s first chapters to be easy to follow and pertinent to the study, he goes into detail regarding his views and offered several suggestive ways to research and study in depth more if the reader so chose to do.

to stress and therefore more susceptible to having problems with anxiety, trauma, depression, and many other issues. Attachment theory suggests that the quality of the parents' attachment system that was first established in infancy will affect their ability to form healthy attachments to their own children and with other adults (Lander, L., Howsare, J., & Byrne, M, 2013). Family systems theory produced out of the biologically based general systems theory. General systems theory focuses on how the portions of a system relate with one another.

Some children may resist changes, while parents can become frustrated when the new family doesn't function like their previous family. While changes to family structure require adjustment time for everyone involved, these guidelines can help blended families work out their growing pains and live together successfully.
For the family intervention session the family me and my group worked on is the Scott family. The Scott family is a family where the members of the family have become distance among each other due to the mother Cindy pregnancy. Cindy is pregnant for another man while her husband is away because of the war. The daughters found out about their mother pregnancy, so it made them distance with their mother and them become closer to their auntie Layla. Auntie Layla feels that she need her sister Cindy to step up and take responsibility of her own children instead of playing the mother role to her nieces. The youngest daughter Sophia is anger at her mother because her mother is making her lie to her father and keeping the secret away from him about the baby.
It is important for parents to be their children's friend, but they need their parent first. Other parents don't have time for their child. They expect schools, day cares, and other institutions to raise their child. Parent’s time in children is irreplaceable. Still other parents find disciplining their child to be too much of trouble; Therefore, they allow their child to act anyway they want. Some may agree that “parenting is not a democracy but a dictatorship.” Finally, there are parents who constantly bail their child out of whatever problem they are in. Children need to know consequences for their actions. These parents are not helping their children by doing these things. Reality will one day slap their child in the face and they will

Family centered care is changing the well known "patient centered" care to including your primary patient's family members as well. Especially when it comes to planning, implementing and evaluating. To a certain degree its caring for your primary patient as a whole, because if their family isn't happy, neither are they. It can give the family members a sense of control in the delivery of ideas, as well as end or lessen emotions such as being overwhelmed or even frightened. Those two emotions as well as others can not only frighten other family members, but because it has frighten them it can frighten the primary patient, causing more added stress to the main patient as well as any others such as a mom and baby.
Strategies and Resources that can help in giving an advance practice of patients and family centered care are composed of these three areas: First, staff should be educated in details about patient and family-centered care. Second, other staff in the hospital should also educate for the awareness and understanding about patient care. Third, include leadership in making the infrastructure to support and develop patient – and – family centered care (Abraham, et. al., 2012).

My early childhood care situation was closely tied to my family context. My mother only worked a couple days each week, spending most of her time at home caring for my sisters (one older and two younger) and I. When my mother worked, I stayed with my father, grandparents, or family friends. My care situation, therefore, was mostly in a family environment, so there were few problems finding appropriate care or adapting to a care situation. Though preschool and pre-K were important to my development, I believe that my family care situation was one of the chief factors in my development. Their attentive care and purposeful engagement with my growth and play shaped my development in many ways.
