The Challenge of Family Relationships in Early Adolescence.
ERIC Clearinghouse on Counseling and Personnel Services, Ann Arbor, MI.; American Association for Counseling and Development, Alexandria, VA.
This second chapter in "The Challenge of Counseling in Middle Schools" presents four articles that deal with family relationships in early adolescence. "Teen-Parent Relationship Enrichment Through Choice Awareness," by Richard Nelson and Marsha Link, describes a process through which counselors may help to enrich relationships between teenagers and their parents. Choice Awareness is discussed, a Choice Awareness workshop process for enriching teenager-parent relationships is described, and outcomes of an experience with the workshop process are reported on a case-by-case basis. "Support Group for Children of Divorce: A Family Life Enrichment Group Model," by Nancy Moore and Margaret Sumner, discusses how social workers from the private, non-profit sector can cooperate with school professionals to serve the concerns of the child whose parents are divorcing. "Substance Abuse and the Family," by John Murphy, views substance abuse as a family disease for which the entire family must receive treatment if the problem is to be treated and reversed. "A Theoretical Rationale for Cross-Cultural Family Counseling," by Miguel Arciniega and Betty Newlon, poses axioms of behavior from Adlerian theory applied to minority families. (NB)
