Genogram and Final Analysis

During the last four weeks, I have been analyzing my family. Every family is different in many things. And this analysis can be useful to know more about my own family and its history. In this final document, I will discuss the different types of families and family compositions. I will also include the changes that have occurred in my family. I will also consider the socio-economic impact that is affecting our society and my daughters. In this document, I will include all the different aspects that affect my family, the raising of children and how it changes the lives of our children. I will also discuss how my family has evolved, the types of applications that I would know from the genogram and how this knowledge would impact and direct the treatment, as well as help me evaluate customer service.
