We gain a new perspective on the world as soon as we take our first breath, hear our first sound, and make our first contact. From the very beginning, we rely on a carer, whether it be a nuclear or extended family.
Through the mother's eyes, her looks and expressions, we gain insight into our own existence and the lives of others.
We strive to understand the world and the nature of existence. We offer a comprehensive approach to nurturing our personal growth and connection with our loved ones, particularly within the family unit and with our carers.
The family is the foundation of our lives, providing us with a sense of security, nourishment, and guidance.
It is within our family that we encounter our first joys and sorrows, learn the importance of rules and boundaries, and embark on countless new experiences. Our family is our true home, shaping our earliest reality and serving as the launching pad for our journey through life.
Considering the nurturing environment as a family unit composed of primary carers prompts us to reflect on the overall integration, well-being, and stability of the family as a whole. A healthy family encompasses the well-being and strength of each family member, along with the effectiveness and durability of the family as a whole.
The idea of family resilience, which was developed in this context, started to form based on the results of a study conducted in a clinical setting.
According to a study, it was discovered that individuals undergoing psychiatric treatment had a higher likelihood of being born around the time of an elder's death in their family, compared to young adults who are generally considered to be in good health.
This situation has been characterised as a complex life experience for carers that necessitates the balancing of grief and parenthood. When faced with a challenging situation where neither personal resilience nor familial support is enough to handle the difficulties, it is worth considering the potential impact on the baby's environment.
This factor could potentially contribute to the development of mental health disorders. Contrasting with the research findings, some families in the control group were able to navigate the challenges of grief and parenting together, emerging as a resilient family unit.
Currently, families who possess the necessary resources to handle crisis situations are able to create an inclusive and satisfactory environment for their infants. This ensures the baby's psychological well-being and paves the way for a healthy spirituality and emotional resilience in adulthood.
