Family Style

 •  Open - values contributions from every family member, including children

•  Closed - one parent "runs the show", best in "hard" times.

Ψ  Family Structure is defined as the legal & genetic relationship between adults & their children. Two points follow  

    1. Structure does NOT in itself determine function or dysfunction (a dysfunctional family is one where the relationships among family members are not conducive to emotional & physical health).

      2. Harmony & stability are particularly appreciated by school-age children."
