Photo by Vivienne Delia Grotta What makes a strong family...especially in the pres ence of life in the '80s? One organization is working on some answers. Despite many reports to the contrary, some experts in the field of family re search say that the Ameri can family in the '?0s is alive and well. An article in a recent issue of the National PTA magazine, PTA Today, re veals some happy facts about modern family life. This issue developed the theme: Families of the '80s, covering such topics as the children of working parents, the benefits and problems faced by the country's five million "latchkey" children and reaching for quality in after-school child care. Reports of the demise of the family are grossly exag gerated, says the article, al though the last 20 years have been a difficult period. Despite this, many families still do remarkably well. TTte article focuses on "outstanding examples of warm, caring families." Re searchers studying such fam ilies found some interesting characteristics: ? Husbands and wives seemed to share basic re sponsibilities and decision making. When asked who ran things at home, their children usually answered: "Mom and Dad." ? Discipline in the fami- i lies was neither excessively strict nor permissive. Par- ! ents were clearly in charge and set high standards but could be flexible in spe cial circumstances. ? Children were re spected, listened to but had clear guidelines about behavior. ? Family members talked openly and affectionately. They had arguments but 1 knew how to resolve them. The researchers offered some suggestions for fami lies trying to improve their life together: ? An improved husband wife relationship can in crease the whole family's well-being. Parents should try to develop a closeness by sharing what they think and feel. ? In a single parent home, the parent should take the initiative to arrange activities that all family members can enjoy. Family members should express ap preciation for each other often. Strong families in teract with each other in terms of their good points.
