What Really Matters: Family

What makes a healthy family:
· People feel free to talk about inside feelings
· All feelings are okay
· Persons are more important than performance
· All subjects are open for discussion
· Individual differences are accepted
· Each person is responsible for their own actions
· There are few shoulds
· Rules are clear and flexible
· The atmosphere is relaxed
· Persons face and work through stress
· People have energy
· Growth is celebrated
· People have high self-worth
· There is a strong parental coalition
