What is family?

Book: “Blood ties

and legal ties, as

networks of

persons who live

together over

periods of time

supporting each

other, and as

groups of people

who have ties of

marriage and

kinship to one

another.”

Together: Theory of Wholeness“The whole is greater than the sum of its parts”

We all bring something to the table that is different but together we create something

distinct. The whole is more important than the individual, and if problems occur, we

discuss the problem as a whole.
