Understanding Families Introduction Today, dealing with family relationships can be a challenging factor; as a result, most people do not seem to have the strategies that promote efficient family interactions. However, various techniques are appropriate to build on family relations. One simplified approach is Dr. Ronald W. Richardson’s ‘family of origin therapy technique’ that focuses on boosting individual self-esteem and capabilities, then employing a counselor or family therapist to resolve potential disputes. Another common strategy that many people assume is communication. In that, adequate communication amongst family members ensures understanding when there is any form of conflict or disagreement. Consequently, it limits gossip and malice by clearing up misinterpretations or misunderstanding that could break family ties. Also, communication promotes mutual support and provides a comprehensive perspective on challenging situations and insights. In the long run, family bonds become stronger. In a bid to provide a richer understanding, this paper answers various questions by describing my personal family experiences while applying what I have learned from Dr. Ronald W. Richardson’s book ‘Family Ties That Bind.’ When I stopped my regular habit…
