Your ideas of bonding the family relationship stronger.

March 29, 2013 5:02am CST
It seems to me, the greatest frustration that people carry in the core of their heart is greater misunderstanding in the relationship. The misunderstanding that I like to mean more or less but all are living under one roof with trouble mind and heavy heart. It matters little whether it is nucleolus or extended family. The little misunderstanding gradually turn into bigger one by associating with it many types of ingredients(mostly human follies and vice). Family seating, meeting and interaction on regular basis may be an effective tonic to mitigate the suffering of mental agony and the discussion must be inclusion to all. But this is not enough, what can be more and how the process can go to make the relationship strengthen ?

I think it is important that families spend time together in order to strengthen the bond they have together. The everyday stresses of life can take it's toll on a family. The home should be a place that we feel we can come to and be refreshed not added to the stress of our life.

Dominique, right you are.Sharing is a great way to minimize the gap of misunderstanding. It is important that home is the only reliable source of getting stimulation for doing all outside works properly and accurately. So we must not make our home hell.

I think we should look at family members as friends, too. That's what we do in our family. My mom is my friend. My brother is my friend. My dad is my friend. That way, we can tell each other what we feel and what we think comfortably. I respect my mom and dad, and they're authority, but we're also friends. And whenever someone is in need, everyone else comes to the rescue.

Well, for me staying or having a close contact which means that everyday family members will have to talk and share ideas will be the greatest act that can bond family member to have a strong relationships with one another. And also, does not ignoring problems and settling it immediately.

Hello aabuda, Well, you are right. We should not ignore or avoid even a trifle matter that may have chance to make relationship cool or bring misunderstanding rather we immediately settle the issue amicably. Thanks

Spending time together as a family is very important. This helps improve the relationship of family members and allow them to develop ties to move forward. Keep in mind that the family is the basic unit of society and as such, that must remain intact. This is where the spouse and children get support reason why that needs to be maintained properly. Parents have an important role in keeping families together and to raise children in the best way possible. The main role of parents is to give unconditional love to their children. Similar to what to give the couple to each other, the parents should be unconditional in expressing their love for their children. This means that regardless of the mistakes made by the son and daughter, father or mother should always make love to their children and give them the time and attention everyday. Through the love of parents, children gain strength and confidence as they grow.

I think regular meeting and quality time is the most important thing. In a close family, they should have regular eating together, going out together... and with the bigger sense of the family, they should make more contact, not just every Christmas or so. Also, they should actually care about each other.

This things is happening to me ever since.It started with my grandparents.even sitting even talking always as long as there is 'envy' 'author' and 'insecurities' upon the heart this will only end up in argument.I am trying to fix it in my generation with my little cousins. My grandparents are already deceased but still within my Mothers's brother and sister. This kind of misunderstanding still existing Small things became big. they make it an issue. and yes living in a same roof. it's really heavy to carry on our heart and cannot find peace of mind. This is what I feel now. Only God is my strength to handle this and working out to fix this things.

Hello fearlessgara, I really feel sorry for you. Your problem seems to me complex. Try to settle with help of your cousin and if possible look for someone learned and influential close relative to go for amicable solution of the problem. I think you are believer, it is fine, seek blessing of Almighty. Hope for the best. Don't be upset that make your life miserable. I hope soon everything will be settled in a positive way.
