Parents often make the mistake that all their children have close personalities, but in truth, it is not so. For example one child may excel in sports while another boy in the family loves to read or draw and the same goes for the girls. [ There is always a leader of the pack (more than two children) and there will always be some discord, but if they are taught to communicate with each other and with their parents as far as what is right or wrong they will settle in and as they get older they will mature and most get along just fine even if they have their own individual personalities. Some families have a 'Panel' or 'Family Meeting' when there is too much discord and all sit down and discuss the problem and come to some agreement in a calm way. There should also be house rules and all the children should have chores to do around the house. ]
Melanie should focus on her strong points, stay well-groomed, and remember that looks don't matter as much as she thinks.
Kübler-Ross was a psychiatrist who studied how we people deal with sorrow (after losing beloved ones, by knowing that we are ill or that we are going to die, etc.). There are five stages which people in this situation normally experience (but not obligatory):
(1) DENIAL
This is the first phase. It is filled with strong emotions and the dominant one is the shock and, after that, denying. Acknowledging tragic events and facts is very disturbing for our mind and it tries to protect itself.
(2) ANGER
Although we can be denying certain things for a long time, in the end, we realize that it won't help and things won't change. In this stage, our minds and our body respond with fury. Individuals tend to think that it is unfair that it happens to them.
(3) BARGAINING
In this phase, a person will desperately try to "negotiate" with the aim to change the outcome. We start to regret the things we did or didn't do earlier, we are ready to do anything and bear anything, just to make the things right.
(4) DEPRESSION
For the first time, we actually see the present moment and we feel all the grief we have been trying to deny or fight. A person is tired of the battle from the three previous stages and we assume our sorrow. It results in a depression, but this is a normal reaction in this kind of situation.
(5) ACCEPTANCE
Finally, after all the stages one has been through, he/she acknowledges reality. We accept the things as they are and we learn to live with them. It doesn't mean that we stop being sad, we have just passed through all the process and our life continues.
