Family Matters Video Series On-line discussion Group
Distance and Cutoff from the Extended Family
與延伸家庭的距離和情緒切割
On-line Discussion
Dec 14, 2020 (Mon) 7:00 -8:30 pm
對一些人來說，斬斷與延伸家庭 (extended family) 的連繫 (俗語謂割席) 似乎是解決困難的關係之一個方法，但這是有代價的。情緒切割或割席對我們有很深遠的影響。透過多代關係 (multigenerational relationships)的傳承，情緒切割會導致核心家庭在功能上的差異。包括形成生理、心理、社交和精神的症狀。這種理解是博域理論所獨有的。
與延伸家庭成員保持開放的關係或有一定的情感接觸有助於減輕核心家庭的焦慮。這對核心家庭的生理、心理及社交症狀和功能均有直接積極的影響。
This video will feature Dr. Mariana Martinez interviewing Mr. Phillip Klever, MSW.
For some people, cutting off ties with the extended family seems like a solution to the problem of a difficult relationship, but cutting off comes at a price. Multigenerational relationships contribute to variation in functioning, including physical, social, and psychiatric symptoms in the nuclear family. This understanding is unique to Bowen theory. An open relationship, or viable emotional contact with members of the extended family, helps to moderate anxiety in the nuclear family. This has a direct positive impact on symptoms and functioning.
