Quote 1 Cohesion
The emotional bonding concept stood out to me. This is because it refers to feeling so close and affectionate towards something or someone. It shows that even without romantic or sexual attraction, someone can become emotionally bond to another. For example, father and daughter, mother and son or even sister and brother. Feeling so close to somebody can help you bond very well, increasing your sense of connection between family members.
I agree with the quote. Through family cohesion, families can create methods of communications with one another. For example, siblings communicating with each other and children addressing their parents are different. When addressing their parents, they do it with more respect knowing that they are the family’s elders. Kids will also minimize silly jokes with their parents. Besides, cohesion may enable one to understand the dislikes and likes of different persons in the family hence knowing how to deal with issues in case they arise. For example, suppose one family member is always happy and talkative but suddenly becomes gloomy and not talking. In that case, you will understand that this person has a problem and action is needed to avoid something terrible from happening. Family cohesion has helped because through the bond, and you can share your issues hence avoiding depression and suicide.
From the quote, I have learnt that family cohesion is a great thing that families should embrace. Through bonding, families learn how to express intimacy, how to tell conflict. They also know how they should communicate with outsiders and how they should communicate within themselves. The emotional bond enhances love between the family members, and no secrets within the family can be revealed to outsiders. When it comes to child lives, family cohesion matters because when you understand your kid’s behaviour, you will know when something is wrong among them. This will prevent depressions faced by kids and somehow suicide cases between young people. Family cohesion will enable families to interact very well. In case of anything, one can speak out or open up to them, knowing comfortably that the secrets won’t go out. The emotional bonding between families will keep them united. Those are the reasons why I can use family cohesion in child and family lives.

According to my interpretation, behavioural management refers to the behaviour patterns that a family employs to deal with family problems. Families, for example, can deal with conflict in a variety of ways, including avoiding it entirely, peacefully resolving disputes, or engaging in heated debates. Families create strategies for coping with difficult situations. Family dynamics also have a significant impact on how young people perceive themselves, others, the environment, and their relationships, behaviours, and overall well-being. Each family system and its dynamics are usually unique, even though patterns might be expected.
Yes, I agree. For example, A family where parents engage in violence will also make a child aggressive and engage in destructive behaviour such as bullying and fighting.
A parent’s reactions to stress affect how a child reacts to worry. If a parent responds negatively to a child, he/she will learn to react negatively. Further, More negative reactions to stress, such as yelling, can scare a child. The way also parent disciplines dramatically affects their children behaviour. When a parent decides to use physical punishment such as spanking, this does not change his/her behaviour, and thus, children can also react aggressively to physical punishment.
If an argument is done fairly and with maturity, a child can benefit from seeing how conflicts are resolved. Parents who abuse their children may cause their children to be aggressive and violent, experience learning problems and even become involved in drugs or alcohol.
