From the Paper:
"Family systems theory conceives of the family as an emotional unit and the individual as part of that unit. The theory assumes that an order and predictability common to all human family relationships regulates the family system. This natural family system operates as a single mutually-influencing unit from which each person must differentiate herself, particularly the children as they move through the process of self-definition. A healthy family system is composed of well-differentiated parents who provide the resources their children need to differentiate themselves, thereby reducing unhealthy behaviors such as emotional reactivity and chronic anxiety."More papers on Family Systems Theory and the Family Unit:
