Family Diversity

My family genogram will, like many others, also be pretty screwed up and intense. But like someone just said below, it does not matter what your genogram looks like. What really matters is how your family communicates and interacts with each other. Every family will have hardships but the way they get through those hardships is what makes you family strong. I personally think that every family will have strong points and weak points. I also believe that every family has many places they can improve and get better. Because of this it shows how much diversity families around the world have. Even in your same neighborhood or extended family. That is one of the first things I learned while taking this class. It is not that I necessarily did not know that before, it just never really occured to me that families can be so different. I think this genogram will be good for everyone in this class to really try and figure out how your family works. That may help improve some areas that we are failing as members of our families.
