Function and Process

After our lecture last Thursday, I can't stop watching my family and how they function and process. I would say that my family is fairly strong and close but we have little quirks I guess you could call them. Actually I think the way Prof Hollist described it was places to "grow". Here's a small taste of how my family functions. My sister has been dating this guy for a few months now, and no one in our family really thought they were going to last, and of course my parents let her know that they didn't think he was right for her. They broke up last weekend and I was the first to know. Oh ya, my whole family lives together still, my sister and I moved back in after a couple years living on our own. When something in my family happens like my sister breaking up with her boyfriend, we don't really discuss it. We just go on discussing it with each other but not as a whole family. My parents ask me questions about my sister and don't confront my sister. Communication is really a place where we our family can grow.
