FAMILY CRISES

Every family has to face crises at some point in their lives. It's an event that brings big changes.
We all need to prepare for crises - financially, emotionally, physically, spiritually....
The important aspect in our crises will be support system - resources such insurrance, planning, attitudes, skills, friends, experts, but being FLEXIBILITY and COHESION are the most important.

It's the structure, not the stressor that makes the difference.
If we fight together we can become closer and stronger as a family. But if we try to do it on our own, it will be more stressful for each member of a family and we will fall apart.

A - Actual event
B - Both resources & responses
C - Cognitions (our thoughts)
_____
 X - Total Experience

We need to remember that none of us is perfect, life is not perfect and neither is the family. But helping each other can help us overcome our imperfections and become stronger.
