Family Relationships

Lecture



Features of the relationship of family members are manifested in communication; Communication here means absolutely any event occurring in a family. Lateness and silence, frank conversations and general fun, shopping and cooking - all this is informative, special, unique communication for this system. Even the seemingly lack of communication, silence, is a powerful informative message. You can stop talking to a person (child, spouse, spouse), and it will be clear to everyone that this is an expression of disapproval and discontent and a desire to expose the guilty to ostracism.
Communication can be verbal and non-verbal; most often it happens both at once. Impetuous, sudden movements, the slamming of the door, the roar of pans express without words the state of mind of a person, and the fact that he wants his family members to know about this state. Perhaps this is a call for help, a complaint or a reproach: “Look at what you brought me to”, etc. If this is accompanied by relevant text, the picture will become complete and complete. Verbal and non-verbal parts of the message complement each other, are in harmony.
It often happens that these parts of the message are not at all in harmony, moreover, they contradict each other. Such situations occur at every step. For example, flirt. People seem to be talking on serious and quite decent topics, even business ones. In this non-verbal, with views, postures, gestures, interpersonal distance, they lead a completely different “conversation”. The situation is fascinating and safe precisely because it is possible to ignore the non-verbal text or not to pay attention to the verbal messages. This case is harmless. As soon as the contradictions of verbal and non-verbal plans fall into a family context and become the rule of communication there, serious violations of the behavior and well-being of family members, especially children, occur.
