The family saying is: The Family Who Eats Together, Stays Together.
We, as humans, are social animals. We just cannot live alone. A family is the whole unit that gives us a sense of our feelings, which is essential for our complete physical and mental health. Sadness or downswings in mood are normal reactions to life’s struggles, setbacks, and disappointments. Many people use the word “depression” to explain these kinds of feelings, but depression is much more than just sadness.
When family crises happen and he is not able to deal with them maturely, maladjustment and unhappiness in his personal life happen. Let’s see what the common causes of the family crisis in the present-day scenario are.
- The presence of children and the resulting splitting of affection between the couple.
- Lack of children: boredom on the part of the couple or friction if one member greatly desires offspring.
- In-laws, not only domineering but elderly relatives, upsetting home.
- Death in the immediate or near family.
- Lengthy illness.
- Income failure: husband broods, wife nags.
- The wife fails to progress and grows up with her husband.
- Change of residence due to the job transfer, loss of friends.
- Unfaithfulness may be a result as well as the cause of unhappiness.
In fiction, when a couple has gone through a crisis and remained together, their marriage has been “purified by fire,” and they find themselves even more compatible than before. This would be the ideal situation, but alas. It is rarely so.
Reality is different from fiction. There might be a brief improvement, but then there will likely be a fresh argument, a lowered level of reconciliation, and ultimately a slowly deteriorating relationship. The social reality today is that the family structure was decidedly weakened over that of the typical family half a century ago. Many live in a rented small house, duplex, or apartment rather than a large house owned by themselves. Fewer elders, maiden aunts, and grandmothers live with them. Birth control has delayed and reduced the number of children. Instead of starting the day unified with a family breakfast, people are in a hurry to move out to their place of work.
On top of this, there seems to be a happy-go-lucky attitude toward marriage and divorce. In our grandparent’s times, marriage was done leisurely and was meant for keeps. The art of adaptability, flexibility, and forgiveness was practiced as second nature. Now, we seem to marry impulsively and run to a lawyer when the first ripple breaks the calm surface. Divorce has now multiplied manifold. Life has become much more complicated.
This is where marriage counseling enters the lives of a couple and helps them understand, comprehend, and settle their differences.
