How To Create The Close-knit Family

By Patricia West


Everyone family wants to be able to connect with one another, so that they are in a healthy environment. It is important that you can relate well to your kids. You need to earn their respect. You need to have a home where you enjoy one another's company. This is the close-knit family which one has lost over the decades.

However, it is something to work towards because this will avoid additional stress and issues. When one works through these challenges, parents will be rewarded by a closer connection and a deeper relationship. This is the basic foundation which one sets early on. This is very important because when you have this foundation, you will stay connected though the child's adult years as well.

The divorce rate is constantly on the rise these days. This is no surprise for this, as one's lifestyle begins to change. It can be difficult to manage the change of routine. It is a lot of work organizing a child's life and making sure that they are happy. In addition to that, you have to make the time for yourself.

Women also have the need to have a career and establish themselves in this area. It can be difficult to find a job when your children have left home and you have just given your attention to them over the years. This is something to take into consideration. There are many areas in which needs to be balanced. One needs to be organized and prepared for the various stages that children go through.

Over the years, it has become the norm for families to drift apart because of the challenges that they are up against. Parents are tired when they get back from work. They will have something to eat in front of the television. Kids may be busy playing before going to bed, but parents may not be involved in the interaction which is important for the family to connect.

When families are so busy like this, one needs to manage time effectively. When you look back, you will really wonder where the years went. Children grow up so quickly. Eighteen years may seem like a long time, but parents often ask themselves where the time went. There is always that question when you ask yourself whether you should have done something differently.

This is where you have to start from day one. The problem will begin with communication. Nine out of ten families collapse because of a breakdown in communication. Different styles of communication are involved. Some people are more extroverted. Others will bottle up their emotions. There are more people involved in a family unit, and one needs to watch out for various signs of chaos.

If you are organized like this, you will find that there is less stress and tension in the home. Stress will lead to parents arguing and this is what kids pick up on. It can drag on over time and sometimes families will developing a dysfunctional style of living their life. This kind of lifestyle will lead to more trauma. These memories are long lasting as well.
