Family Systems

Here is a little chart I developed long ago, for people to map their family system, internal and externally.  The large circle in the middle allows the family to map their primary family, while the circles without allows them to map those influences outside the home, which also have a significant effect on the family.  Al

though this map I did, I did not develop the idea of mapping a family, internally and externally.  This is a good tool for allowing people to look at their families, and is a springboard for discussion of the influence of family.
