Treatment for Family Problems and Issues
All families are different, and the ups and downs of family life have a huge effect on children and young people. The love and support children feel from parents and relatives will give them the strength to grow and develop. But all families go through difficult times and some children and young people can find it hard to get on with parents or siblings.
This can be for a variety of reasons including:
- Different personalities clashing and disagreements over ways of doing things
- Jealousy or fighting between brothers and sisters
- Parents arguing
- Divorce or separation
- New step-parents or step-brothers and sisters
- A parent or relative having mental health problems, disabilities or illness
- A parent or relative having alcohol or drug problems
- Stresses due to unemployment, money or housing problems
- Domestic violence
- Cultural or generational differences
- The effects of bereavement
- Abuse or neglect
When to get help?
If you find that difficulties persist or that relationships are deteriorating, then it is probably a good idea to get help. The earlier intervention can take place, the quicker the recovery. Every person and family has a wealth of resources inside them, but sometimes we need a little outside help to help connect us to our sense of resilience and resource in order to get out of being trapped in helplessness.
