    Bowen’s Family Systems theory (BFST) attempts to explain human behavior as it relates to family dynamics and its complex interconnections. Reading Genesis chapters one through four, I identified four of eight BFST concepts that can be applied to “The First Family”: (a) triangles concept, (b) nuclear family concept, (c) emotional cutoff, and (d) sibling position.

Additionally, according to the theory, dyad is weak to withstand stress on its own and thus having at least three individuals in the family makes it stronger. We…

    Rex and Rosemary Walls show a permissive form of parenting to their four children, Jeanette, Lori, Brian, and Maureen Walls. They are very lenient in curfew and behavior, they allow the children to virtually fend for themselves and they rarely, if ever, punish their kids for misconduct. The Walls parents placed a few rules, one being that the children could go anywhere they wanted, but they must return home when the street lights come on. The children could leave if they chose during the night because their mother slept hard and their father was always out. “Every now and then, when Brian and I were feeling revved up, he’d get a machete and I’d get a baseball bat and we’d go Pervert hunting…”…

    During the movie ‘I Am Sam’ we see two very different styles of parenting exhibited, by looking at Baumrind’s Parenting Styles we can see that both neglectful and authoritative styles were in effect. To determine what parenting style is used, Baumrind developed four classifications that parents tend to fall into when raising a child. A clear example of neglectful parenting during the movie is by the character Rita; we see Rita a lot throughout the ordeal that Sam is going through as she agrees to be his lawyer free of charge, however we also see that she has a son who always comes second to her busy working lifestyle. As the movie progresses it is unveiled that Rita has family problems as home being her failing marriage; her son seems to be in the middle of this and we see Sam interacting with her son when he goes to her house where is becomes clear that because Rita is so uninvolved with her child he stops seeing her as a person with authority and we see him wiping his hands on the white couch and playing on a scooter when he should be in bed. The second parenting style that we see during the…
