Home and Family

One goal is to become a social scientist and to understand the family in ways that are considered theories. There are four main theories that I want to review and mention how I have come to experience these theories not only from observation but in my friends and other families I have come familiar with. 1.        The systems theory (created in 1978 by Family Therapist    Murray Bowen) is broadly mentioned how a family functions as a system. There are roles and rules that are taken on and developed in the family and the system isn’t much affected by outside influence. So in the shoes of the family therapist when trying to help an individual must look at the whole family when addressing the problem. For an individual that finds themselves in this scenario or “theory” you should try to work on your individuality and think logically if your effected in a negative way being in your “family system”. I have not really seen this in my family   but thin...

We as individuals, as humans, have developed in such a way that the way we look at life has become more about our self then the loved ones around us. Maybe I'm going out on a limb here, but I would say that the world is moving away from the term called familism and has moved towards individualism. For example, rather than looking at the good of the family one instead looks at what will help themselves. it's  easier today then the past to succumb on focusing specifically on personal fulfillment and self achievement. Through all the bustle of working on our careers and building our money reservoir we have to come down and think about growth.

So you may wonder who is this guy! I'm Brandon. Born and raised on the tip of  the United States called Florida right in Orlando. I am a full time student majoring in the Family. I have always loved people and what can come from having a connection.  I thought I would write this blog to have a place to hold my thoughts and spread awareness about the greatest social connections we can enjoy and yes that is the Family unit. In this, as I learn and ponder from the greatest books of the earth, I would like to share my insights and opinions considering the Family. I can only anxiously wonder as the weeks go by what I may come across and decide to blog about associated with healthy relations within a Family. Well, cheers to the weeks ahead!
