PSY-101 Update for next week...Chapter 4!
For Monday (10/13) - Please have read up through Birth Order. We will begin looking at families by reading about family history, structures, and demographics (race, culture, etc.). This will be followed by our family of origin and a discussion around birth order.
REMINDER: There is NO CLASS on Wednesday (10/15) due to the PSAT being given in school to all sophomores and juniors.
Our discussion will continue on Friday (10/17) with an examination of the concepts of functional families, step-families, parenting, and dysfunctional families.
In preparation to our conversation about families, please give some thought (possible response) to the following:
The bond that links your true family is not one of blood, but of respect and joy in each other's life. Rarely do members of one family grow up under the same roof.
- Richard Bach
True? Controversial? Something to think about...ews

This is actually very true! I think that our closest friends can be like our sisters or brothers. Someone who stands up for us and fights along side of us! This is how I would look at a quote like this. Although I do believe your blood family is the closest to family as you'll ever get!
in our world we learn from not only our family but form others, and early enough in our childhood we begin to build our morals to carry us through life. without interacting in the outside world we wouldn't know any different from what our families taught us and wouldnt be able to cope with others.
