They don t enjoy problems, of course, but they are able to look at a troubling situation and see some positive aspect about it, no matter how small. Their good communication skills helps them cope and so does the fact that each family member can be flexible. Practice looking for something good, even in bad situations. Many problems may prove to be less serious than they first seem when you remain calm and discuss the situation. Even a really difficult problem can seem less terrible if you know the whole family will stick together to solve it.
Strong families don t just happen.
They are made of people who are committed to each other and to the family. They believe that there is a meaning to life and that they are in charge of their own destinies. They like, and appreciate, and enjoy each other, and are not afraid to talk about problems or disagreements. It is not easy to build a strong family. It takes real work and effort.
