1. Is it possible, even with patience and STUDY, for a couple to
enter marriage totally PREPARED for whatever they might encounter? 2. Family transcends RACE, RELIGION, ETHNICITY and SEXUAL orientation. 3. The better prepared we are for MARRIAGE, the GREATER the possibility for success in our homes. 4. When it comes to understanding about working with families, the terms “EDUCATION” and “INTERVENTION” are not synonymous. 5. Research indicates that “EDUCATION” is generally more effective than “INTERVENTION” relative to helping families succeed. 6. The primary suggestion of the poem: “Ambulance in the Valley” is that PREVENTION is better than a CURE . 7. The definition used to describe Family Life Education has CHANGED over the past forty years. 8. It is NOT likely that any one individual or group could arrive at a one-size-fits-all definition of “FAMILY.” 9. There is a significant difference between a “FAMILY” and a “HOUSEHOLD.” 10. The primary difference between our family of ORIGIN and our family of PROCREATION is the role we play within it. In the former we are the CHILD, in the latter we are the PARENT. 11. Some say it is IMPOSSIBLE for us to overcome the influences of the family in which we are reared, but they are WRONG. 12. The family is a DYNAMIC rather than a STATIC unit of society. 13. The “NUCLEAR FAMILY” no longer represents the most modern configuration of a family unit. (MOM, DAD, KIDS) 14. The concept of an “EXTENDED family” suggests two or more generations of close family RELATIVES living together. 15. The majority of single-parent homes are headed by MOTHERS rather than by FATHERS. 16. Couples consider themselves “CHILD-FREE” if they choose to not bring children into the world, if they are trying but not succeeding, they are “CHILDLESS.” 17. A “RECONSTITUTIONAL family” is another label for a “STEP FAMILY .” (BLENDED) 18. COHABITATION refers to unmarried couples who choose to live together, whether or not they are PLANNING on a future MARRIAGE to each other. FCHD 2400 C. Beckert, PhD
19. It remains politically INCORRECT to refrain from calling gay
and lesbian couples living together a family while LEGALLY they are not. 20. It would be INCORRECT to state that the American Family is in a state of decline and deterioration. Each opinion is based upon individual EXPECTATIONS. 21. In reality, there remains a “SOCIAL class” in the American culture. 22. The terms “RACE” and “ETHNICITY” are NOT synonymous when referring to families. 23. Race refers to GENETICS and ethnicity refers to CULTURE. 24. In some cultures marriage is a “__________” rather than a “____________ .” 25. There is a FEDERAL law which confirms that marriage is a legal union of one man and one woman as husband and wife. Passed in 1996 and is called the Defense of MARRIAGE Act. 26. In America, marriage involves a LEGAL CONTRACT . 27. MONOGAMY is the more widely accepted marriage union in America. 28. A POLYGAMIST can be either a man or a woman. 29. One man with two or more wives would constitute POLYGYNY. 30. One woman with two or more husbands would constitute POLYANDRY. 31. CENOGAMY refers to GROUP marriages. 32. Understanding the DEVELOPMENTAL processes we all experience will help us keep our EXPECTATONS realistic and in perspective, thus avoiding serious FRUSTRATION. 33. Most DEVELOPMENTAL tasks we experience as part of a family are relatively PREDICATABLE points in our lives. 34. There is a FAMILY life cycle as well as a HUMAN life cycle. 35. The family life cycle: a. Leaving home (personal RESPONSIBILITY) b. The new couple (COMMITMENT to a relationship) c. Families w/ children (accepting new MEMBERS ) d. Families w/ teens (permitting and encouraging INDEPENDENCE) e. Launching children and moving on (experiencing SEPARATION) f. Families in later life (accepting GENERATIONAL roles) 36. The human life cycle: a. Infancy (0-2 years) i. SURVIVAL and ADJUSTMENT b. Early childhood (2-6 years) i. CURIOSITY and ACQUISITION c. Middle childhood (7-12 years) FCHD 2400 C. Beckert, PhD
