Each family member counts

Each of you-mother, father, son, and daughter thrives on the knowledge that who you are and what you are do make a tremendous difference to others is the family. Although you are a tiny part of crowded world. Each of you is vital performer in your own home.
Sense of belonging
The sense of belonging is good for you and they probably belong to many groups. It is likely that none of you is completely sure that you are a permanent member of any close group except your family.
Although your school age child is less a family belonged than he used to be, he still needs family life very much. Because he is young, he has inner strength to shield him against loneliness. If he feels that he belongs to his family, he will have a source of inner strength no matter what happens.
Belonging to his family also gives your child a chance to practice membership skills. He learns how to share, to take turns, to be loyal, and to adjust to the feelings of other people. These lessons help him when he moves into groups outside his home.

Personal closeness in family
This personal closeness is not, of course, all sympathy and understanding. There are plenty of ups and downs in any family.
Closeness brings conflict, as well as comfort, love brings hurt, as well as healed, feelings. Because family members care so much, they can upset, as well as soothe one another. Because all human beings become angry when they get hurt, family life is apt to contain plenty of tears,temper, wounded silences, beaten quarrels, and gloomy thoughts of revenge.
Such upsets are apt to be more common for children than for parents because it takes years of living to learn self-control. And few, if any, adults ever achieve this completely.
Another reason your family is apt to be an emotional storm center is that children and parents alike are expected to hold in their feelings when they deal with the outer world. These feelings build up during the day and, like dammed waters, must have an outlet. If family members can pour out their feelings at home, they probably can be more calmly reasonable at school, work, and play.
Maybe you can’t smooth your child ruffled feelings, no matter how you try. Perhaps your spouse is better at calming johnny than you are; or more successful with Marjorie, sometimes more parent gets along especially well with one of the children and the other parent with the other youngster.
