Where has communication gone in a family unit?

If your family is like most families communication can be lacking at times. With having to work and the kids going to school finding time for families to sit and get to know one another is somewhat lacking. I think it’s important to get know your family. Lots a marriage problems , kid problems, and problems that face every family can be solved with getting to know them by asking them the right questions to peek their interest.

Why not make a game of asking family members question to answer on a special night each week or even on a monthly basis. I think you’ll find it fun a refreshing way to spend time with the ones you love. Know what your spouse and kids thinking about . Know what thier likes and dislike are. Remember to make it a game not a mud slinging contest where family member vents against family member. Let every one know that there is no judging , just a chance to get know one another. I think to let your kids know that not everyone is going to like what we do or say, Is sending them the message that it ok to be different Let them see that to accept someone else's point view isn’t necessarily meaning that you agree with them. Just means that you don’t judge other’s for their different point of view.

The ever changing life of our Families.

Families have changed though out the years. The structure of the family has changed from Two parent families with a Father and Mother, to One parent being Father or Mother. Then there are the Two Parent families with the same sex Parents. What has remained the same is ,no matter what it’s makeup is, all family structures have to provide for the welfare of the individual involved.
This were you will get different points of view. Religion, Social Society, Government, and Traditions all play part in the beliefs of the individual families.
You have some argue that one parent families ,with the exception of those widowed in to being one parent, are a disgrace to families and God. Same with the Same sex parents because of the different values Society share different views to who we should except who should not.
This is what I say to all the controversy NO matter the family we all need the same things. Love, shelter, food, and water. Believe it or not we all share in the same problems that’s striving to abtain the love, shelter, food, and water. Wouldn’t it be great if the human race as a whole stopped looking at people to judge but look on them as comrades. We could learn so much from one another if there where not the barricade that block us from relating to each other.
Remember the movie Pay it Forward if each one of us was to do a kindness to a complete stranger wouldn’t you benfit from the experience. Just writing a letter to the soldiers that don’t have families but are serving our country is a "pay it forward act". ( if like more information on this click here )
Some other things you can do are send your neighdor a just thinking of you card, Some times just a act can change people around you and without you knowing it yourself. Try going a day with the goal of trying to smile at everyone you see. Then at the end of the day think back at the day you experienced you might be surprised to see that the day you just had was good. Even when you think of the people who gave you funning looks or hateful looks it didn’t ruin the day. In fact I almost bet that even those negative responses to your smile got them thinking.
