Family Crisis

This week we learned about family crisis and the best way to handle different situations. Some excellent examples were shared in class and I really feel like I learned a lot of valuable things that will help me throughout my life. Something very interesting we learned about in class was the ABC model. Actual events + Behavioral responses + Cognition (what the family thinks happened) = Experience. This model demonstrates that a family crisis can either tear a family apart, or help them grow closer together and be a wonderful experience. It is how you handle the crisis/trial that matters. We should always try to learn from every experience in our life, even the ones that are very difficult.
