Theories

Well, I am still working on what exactly I need to say in this blog, but I found this week fascinating. I really enjoy learning about theories and ways to apply them especially thinking about how they apply to my family. Reading the articles and thinking about about family got me thinking about what rules for interaction do I have in my family. It was actually much harder than I thought it would be to find them. The big reason for that is I haven't lived at home for about 6 years and during that time things have changed: my siblings have grown up, most of us have served mission, my family is even living in a different house. The system has changed, and figuring out what the change is would be very interesting, but it would explain why when I go home I feel like I shake things up. The other hard thing this week was thinking about boundaries, and it was for the same reason, I haven't been home and I don't know what some of the boundaries between some of my family members are. I also discovered that I want to make some of my boundaries more open.
