Learning My Family Dynamics
List several reasons why you are important to your family and discuss this with your parent or guardian and with your counselor.
Positive Family Traits
A family is made up of people who care about one another. All members of a family give and receive love and support from the others. Family members reach out to one another and share both happy and sad times together. They talk and listen to one another, and they share ideas, thoughts, and concerns. They share fun as well as sorrow and help heal one another’s hurts. All of this makes the foundation stronger.
What are some ways you help to create a positive family dynamic?
Suggested assignment to get you started:
Start a conversation with your parent or guardian using these suggested questions as a starting point. Ask them:
- What do I do to help my family members?
- What are some ways I contribute to our family that I might not notice?
- How do I help create a positive atmosphere?
- How do I help contribute to our family traditions?
- What ways do you see me providing love and support to my family members?
