My Family Strengths

Before my parents married, I was born. Meaning that I was born out of wedlock and my great-grandparents weren 't too happy about it. Neither of my parents were really ready to have a child, but they provided me with the best home possible. When I was about 3 my parents got married.When my parent’s first married we were considered a nuclear family. A nuclear family is defined as a couple and their dependent children. There is only 3 of us, my mom, my dad, and me. Unless you include my two dogs, three cats, and my snake. Other than that it 's just my parents and me. We 're a pretty normal family, we aren 't crazy and we love each other and support each other. Eventually, my uncle moved and we were then considered an extended family, because my …show more content…
We are constantly supporting each other in everything we try to accomplish. In my family, no matter what you put your mind to can be accomplished. We love each other unconditionally. Whenever we have a problem or an issue, inside or outside of the family we talk to each other about what is bothering us. We as a family, spend a large amount of time together. We spend time watching television shows together, going on vacations, and playing video games with each other. Overall, the strengths of my family are what truly make us into a family, but we also have our weaknesses. One weakness that my family has is that we procrastinate. We usually are getting our tasks done last minute and figuring out what to do last minute. Another weakness which isn’t anything terrible, is the fact that we can never decide what to eat for dinner. We are in a constant dispute over what we should be eating that night. Honestly, I am proud of my whole family and there really isn’t anything that i 'm self-concious about. My family is constantly trying to support each other and never trying to bring anyone else down. Everything that my family does and stands for means the world to me and I couldn’t be prouder of who we are as this family. One characteristic of my family has always made me proud to be apart of it. In my family, we have more than just biological people as part as our family. Growing

    Family Introduction Creating this genogram was a difficult task for me because my parents and their siblings hardly communicate with each other anymore. Ever since the passing of both my paternal grandfather and maternal grandmother, the families have simply fallen apart. Many relatives have distanced themselves from their extended families, and no longer have a desire to interact with their siblings or cousins. Sociopolitical and spiritual issues have caused some members of both families to harbor resentment against one another.…

    Australian families are changing, with the concept of family no longer represented by the ‘traditional’ nuclear family of Mum, Dad and two kids. Families now come in all shapes and sizes—blended, extended, one mum, one dad, two mums and two dads. Fewer of us are getting married, and when we do, we’re getting married much later—and the divorce rate has stabilised. We are having fewer children and the number of blended and step-families has increased.…

I am a twenty-two year old African-American female named Marlene Denise Ware, and I consider my family experiences important as to our health and well-being. My family is not perfect and my family origin and chosen relationships with reference to culture are a healthy functional family.
