Student Sharing
以下是一位學員經有關博域理論的討論和啟發後，鼓起勇氣重新接觸與家族斷絕來往多年之親人的經歷，更對媽媽的一些行為多了理解。
我在十二月中參加了第一次”Family Matters video series online discussion group”, 從觀看有關Bowen Theory 的影片去學習理論及應用。令我最意想不到的收穫是影片放影後的小組討論和分享，分享內容很豐富和有啟發性，非常貼地及實用。給我很大的推動力去和幾年沒有聯絡的小姨重新結連。
近幾年，我的媽媽常常買大量的食物及日用品給我和弟妹的家庭。我們家中的水果經常吃不完，冰箱也常迫爆，放至發黃而被丢掉的蔬果不計其數。我們都知媽媽常常擔心我們沒有時間買食材，又覺得工人姐姐不懂挑選好的蔬果，但我們實在不想她常常拿着重重的大包小袋，而且我們也想買一些自己喜歡吃的東西，不想浪費食物。無奈如何跟她說都沒有果效，真令我們頭痛。最近跟老師聊起這個問題，想起這可能跟媽媽和小姨幾年之前因一些是非弄至大家不瞅不睬斷絕交往有關。當中可能是因為cutoff 而令媽媽的焦慮積累。
所以在參加完第一次Family matters video series之後，意識到和家人建立有意義的關係的重要，我便立志計劃在聖誕前向小姨送上小禮物，重新結連。 雖然起初她也很抗拒我的到訪，但最後我們終可見面，聊了很久。這是今年最好的聖誕禮物，是我為重修關係踏出的第一步!
