Family

The system brought me up so my views are from what I thought a family should be. The secret to matainijng a happy family is communication & lots of communication. There shouldn't be a specific role per person because single parenting is becoming a normal thing but where there's two adults one should always support the other in all things especially when it comes to laying down house rules. Kids should see or know that you all don't agree on the spacifics of a problem. Children should be given responsibility from an early age, it teaches morals & gives them self esteem. To make a famly unit work, every decision should be made within a family discussion, children understand & know more than adults give them credit for.

in my family my father is a so humours man that we are so happy stay with him.And my father often play games with me like police and stealor.how fun of him.

I dont think there are specific roles for each family member really..I mean whatever works for each individual family is whats right for them...As far as what is the "secret"...honestly IMO..and this is how it is in my house, RESPECT...OPENMINDEDNESS..SOLID COMMUNICATION (with adults AND the children) and of course FREEDOM to be as we are in our core rather than someone in the family trying to mold us into what THEY want us to be...I see that so often with parents towards their children on many levels from religious to how they dress etc etc and I find it disturbing..

respect, understanding, freedom, compromise, safety, suport. to me these are all important to have a happy family. both perents should have the same role to love care play and suport their kids. respect that works on all levels.

I think that the secret, if that is the right word, has to be communication, guidance, honesty, integrity, time and above all else, love. We only have one chid so maybe it is easier. But from a very young age we have encouraged her to play an active part. To been enquiring and not stop her questions. To give her truthful answers to her questions. To give her some freedoms, but to be there when things go wrong. To show her the love that is between my wife and I, without going over the top and to give her that love too. She lives away from us now. But phones us every day to say that she loves us. She is a good citizen, a fine role model and a wonderful daughter and w are proud that we are all family.

For me the most important thing is TRUST. Trust your better half, trust your children. Respect their privacy and above all LOVE them and spend your time with your family. Tell them that your are always there with them. Be a Leader rather than a Boss. Preach what you practice. Children learn everything from their parents. Husband and whife should never fight in front of their children. www.winmyindia.com

The secret lies within all the members that compose a family. It's all up to them how they're going to make such a strong bond among each other. It is very nice to have bonding activities together from time to time. It's also good to talk together and have an open forum often. Lastly, I still believe, above all, that the family that prays together, stays together.

The most important thing is to understand each other, respect each other, sharing, caring and always discuss any problem that comes up. In building a happy family, we are not free from problems. There will be misunderstanding even though you try to avoid it. Well.. that the colour of life.

This is so broad that i don't know where to begin with. But the main thing that keeps a family is love. roles a person takes varies from family toi family, and well that is always how it will be if you try to perfect your family by telling them what they should be and do, well it won't be a very happy one. so basically everyone shoulf be themselves and not what someone says they should be.
