Editor's Notes
- When illness occurs during a centripetal period, like infancy, the family may be more easily mobilized to care for the ill member than it is during a centrifugal period like adolescence
- The family’s sense of efficacy can be enhanced when they feel that they have coped with a crisis well, or when the healthcare provider recognizes their efforts and affirms their strengths
- parents to have a private relationship that is not undermined by children or grandparents
- Families with adolescents may appear to be more disengaged than families with young children, and still be caring well for one another
- the men in each generation never go to physicians for health problems
