Our parents, our children, ourselves: a therapy group to facilitate understanding of intergenerational behavior patterns and to promote family healing.
1. The parent-child relationship is one of the most influential in a person's life, forming the conscious and unconscious reality out of which the person functions for the rest of his or her life. 2. Because all families are imperfect, painful behavior patterns can be passed from one generation to another. 3. Through understanding the history of their own growth and development and that of the families they produced through marriage, these parents learned how to change their part in painful interactions with their children, thus opening the possibility of healing between generations.
