Mother VS Father

 As a kid from what I Think is a pretty healthy family I have found an interest in comparing the roles of my parents and how they differ from each other. One of the first major things that I noticed was that mothers are wonderful at the nurturing side of parenting, especially the caring side. Don't get me wrong, dads are also great nurturers, but moms are just built for the role. Mothers are very adept at sensing people's feelings and helping with emotions, while fathers are a bit better at the physical side of loving.  I think evolution has had a part of play in the development of the family orientation. In the past you can see even more evidence of the family having roles, like early Indians where the mothers stayed and taught the children while the fathers hunted and protected the families. It's been an interesting week being able to take a look at my family and see the difference that my mom and dad have had when taking care of the family.

Stressors in Marriage

 Stress has been something that I have not really had to deal with. I think it's been because of my outlook on life and how I view things, although a family is not something that I have experienced yet and I think that that is going to be one of the only things that will provide some type of stress in my life. Usually how I look at things is... if I can control the outcome, then I'll control the outcome and it'll be fine. If I can't control the outcome then worrying about it does absolutely nothing and there's no point in stressing over it. The main thing that I think will change that is I will have a family later on, and not having control of things that only effect me seems totally fine, but not having control over something that is going to negatively effect my wife and my kids is definitely going to cause some gray hairs to grow on my head. I think a relationship is a huge tool to use when dealing with stress, because now it's not just you vs the problem, it...

Nuclear Families

 I think this last blog post is going to end up being about my own family and how much I appreciate them. One of the main things that I've learned this year is that not all families are created equal, some of them only have one parent, some don't have any children that are actually related to the parents, and others have issues of their own, whether that's some kind of substance or physical abuse. My parents have never had any issues with substance abuse or any problems with physical abuse. They are both still happily married and every other kid in our family of 8 hasn't been worse than me, haha. I have found it so great that I turned out the way that I did because of the family situation that I was put in, and I'm incredibly grateful for the family that I have.
