FAMILY

||~  =  =   Neg. = =   || **As the beatles once said, "love is all you need." Enough said. We are biologically programmed to love our families. Coming Home to a family that loves you unconditionally gives you a warm and fuzzy feeling. ||= **Pressure (to be just like another family member)** Competition between siblings, especially twins, can be a reaction to being frequently compared to each other.It is also caused by a need to draw attention to oneself as an individual. "MARSHA! MARSHA! MARSHA!" We call this the Marsha complex. || **"Where everybody knows your name, and they're always glad you came. You wanna be where you can see, our troubles are all the same You wanna be where everybody knows Your name." It's good to have a place where you belong and you'll always be accepted for who you are. ||= ** Jealousy and fighting for attention ** In //100 Years of Solitude//, Rebeca and Amaranta both fought for the love of Pietro Crespi. Pietro falls in love with Rebeca, making Amaranta jealous. The green monster is always there and I'm not talking about the hulk! || In order to have a functioning household a family needs to work as a team. They need to help each other out. GO TEAM GO!! ||= **Worry** Parents have a natural instinct to be very protective over their children. Family relationships in general have that instinct. As a result to that, families worry a lot about one another. The worrier is often annoying to the one being worried about! Example: Jessica Liban and her Mother || **Family life provides high levels of love and support. Families are there to Emotionally comfort you. Just like a wonder bra!! Great support! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AVr8GEn5yJA ||= ** Stuck with the family even if you don't want it ** When Your family does things that you don't like, you're stuck with them, they will still be there. || A lot of the time people can count on their relatives to do tasks for them. Like raising their children. I don't mean to mention any names but JOSE ARCADIO WITH AMARANTA! ||= ** Lack of privacy ** When you live in the same house as someone or a group of people your privacy usually gets trampled on. || Families aren't perfect and there are many obstacles involved. You learn many things. For example, patience with your Family, and parents teach their kids how to do basically everything. ||= **Loss of family (domino effect for emotions)** With everyone so close in a family when a member dies it effects everyone. Also, When a member is in a depressed mood the domino effect kicks into gear and everyone feels sympathetic and becomes depressed. || With a family that has your back with what ever you choose to do it can build a lot of confidence. It gives the little push to accomplish what you need. ||= ** Incest ** Oedipus complex. What happens when feelings go too far! **:(** ||
