I believe a dysfunctional family can create a healing relationship. Each individual is responsible and accountable for his or her actions. Each individual has to be committed to his or her own growth. If we each take care of this, it's amazin to see the family dynamics' transformation. It is like entrainment. Positive beliefs, attitudes, core heart values are more powerful than negative. One member in the family being responsible and accountable for his/her own actions and spirituality growth makes all the difference. Check out www.heartmath.com

Loaded question dependent on a variety of

circumstances; cultural and specific. It was not uncommon during historical times of financial hardship (US) to have several generations under the same roof and remains as such in other cultures even today. I believe it would be challenging (if necessary) and unhealthy, individually as well but in times of difficulty, we do what we need to do.

I would assist in any way possible to aide my children as well as my mother, siblings or any other family member, but living under the same roof would only be considered if there was absolutely, no other option....although I always dreamed I would be blessed with enough overflow to say.....invest in and subdivide property to give each of my children a solid ground kick start.

I love my children/family and if physical incapacity or act of nature (beyond irresponsibility), required my assistance, making a space for them, or aiding in the costs to house them, my arms would be open as well as my home.

Whatever works best for the family and the individual; it has to be a

mutually agreeable arrangement for it to work to everyone's benefit...

There is a fine line. Individuality is key and so is family, unity...............
