Family Probes: The family lives in 3 bedroom house. The master bedroom is downstairs and the boys’ bedrooms are upstairs. Each bedroom, as well as the living room, has a television. The main television in the living room has several gaming systems that the family plays together often. A typical day, according to Tarea, is she gets up at 4:30 a.m. to be at work at 6:00 a.m. She calls each son at 6:45 a.m. to make sure they are up and getting ready for school. Daniel gets up at 7:00 a.m. and takes the Kason to school at 7:30 a.m. Kadan drives himself. Tarea works until at least 5:00 p.m. Daniel works varies hours. Both boys go to baseball practice after school and Kadan picks Kason up afterwards. Suppers are eaten together, if it be home cooked

It could be that Daniel may feel neglected by Tarea because of her dedication to her job and her recent medical problems. In the mezzo level, Daniel’s work is a contributing factor in the presenting problem. His affairs all started with women he worked with. His work friends knew he was married and encouraged the affairs so Daniel would go out with them on weekends. This peer pressure is something that Daniel could have over looked but eventually gave in to and committed adultery. It is hard to speculate about the macro level because more information would be needed from the family. There was nothing past the work environment discussed within the group.
Recommendations: I recommend Daniel and Tarea seek marital counseling. The family should continue to have open communication and possibly seek counseling as a family. I also recommend that Daniel and Kason seek professional help to work on their anger issues because they can be a stressor in the family dynamics. Daniel should spend more time with each son, together and separately, to do things besides baseball. He should allow each son to pick an activity for them to do for an afternoon
