Contest!! 9 : Friendly Environment also makes family Bonding?
INTRODUCTION
WHAT EXACTLY IS A FRIENDLY ENVIRONMENT
HOW IS FRIENDLY ENVIRONMENT CREATED
• A friendly environment is achieved through families spending time with each other, treasuring time over pursuit of money.
• A friendly environment can be achieved through selfless love and support for each other, giving room for mistakes and forgiveness. Forgiveness plays a great part because it is through forgiveness that friendly atmosphere is restored.
• A family that prays together, spends leisure time together, cooks and eats together, go to church or worship together ends up bonding more.
• When family members are encouraged to speak out on what they are going through or how they feel without their feelings being mocked or the members being judged, the bond gets tighter. When there is empathy among family members, friendly environment is created and the bond increases.
• Appreciation and compliments among family members paves way for friendly environment and bond. Correcting a child in love instead of beating the child for his or her mistakes tightens the bonds. Imagine a family where every member dines together, joke and laugh over things and then correction is made, there will be bond, but in a situation where the family member makes mistakes and knowing the family he or she comes from, the toxicity, the name calling and abuse, the person will want to cover up his or her mistake and might end up making more. When the mistake is uncovered by the family members, the way they will treat that person will further widen the bond. A family that lacks friendly environment tends to have more divorce cases, the children end up being aggressive to others in the society and find it difficult to form and nurture relationships. Even if they end up with good partners, they might end up being narcissistic and toxic to their partners.
WAYS A FRIENDLY ENVIRONMENT WHICH LEADS TO BONDING CAN BE CREATED IN THE FAMILY
• Through support. When a child or a family supports each other, there is bound to be that bond. The support can be in form of finance, academic, encouragement, etc. People who have abd support each other tend to achieve goals easily. Through treating one family member's problem like everyone's problem while one family member's success is celebrated by all.
• Encouraging words. Instead of backlashing and criticizing pointing out failures, encouraging words should be used on the family members. Words like, "I understand how you feel, I'm sorry you tried but you can do better'.
• Inviting family members over and spending time together. Spending holidays together, doing things during leisure period like playing games, outing to the beach etc, praying together.
When there is a friendly environment in the family, there is much closeness and bond in the family. It makes the family members value the family unit because of the love shared in the family. Family members can easily make sacrifices for each other. The children treasure each other and learn how to resolve issues and they can easily forgive because of the values they were taught. A friendly environment makes a child have self confidence and will easily achieve goals. A friendly environment makes children perform better academically, the family members will live long because there is happiness and peace of mind in the family.
