 WHAT ARE FAMILY LEGACIES?

• All families have a set of beliefs, values, and attitudes that are passed
down from generation to generation through the messages that
children receive from their parents.
• These then become part of the growing child’s worldview.
• These beliefs are frequently conveyed unconsciously by parents and
internalized by children unknowingly and without being evaluated in
terms of their validity, truthfulness, or usefulness. They are blindly
accepted.
 FAMILY TRADITIONS

• Traditions
• Every family has its traditions.
• Some you may truly treasure such as big
holiday gatherings with extended family.
• Others you may truly despise such as the
jello mold served at every festivity.
• While some you may not even realize exist.
 POSITIVE LEGACIES

• Family legacies can be worth treasuring and

passing on to the next generation or they
may be unhealthy and merit discarding.
Being aware of your family legacies can help
you to decide which beliefs and attitudes you
cherish and which you want to make a
conscious effort to change.
 FAMILY REUNIONS

For example, if you were raised in a

family that valued “together time,” your
parents may have taught you why they
thought this was important, spent time
with you and your siblings, included you
in decisions about outings and
vacations, and encouraged you to set
aside time to be with your family.
MANO PO- A SIGN OF RESPECT
FILIPINO CHRISTMAS
FEASTIVITIES
 NEGATIVE LEGACIES

• You may have been raised by

parents who were very strict in
their discipline; they were quick
to punish, did not allow you to
explain your point of view, and
used humiliation as a discipline
tool.
Many of these legacies, therefore,
can be passed along without a lot
of reflection on the part of the
parent.
For example, you might have grown up
in a house where “children were to be
seen but not heard.”
 As an adult you may decide
that you want to reverse that
legacy. Instead of using
discipline that shames your
children, you choose methods
that maintain their self-esteem
and your relationship with
them.
GAMBLING
SIESTA TIME
SELECTING WHAT TO INHERIT

• Those that you value, you hope your children

“inherit.” Those that you abhor, you try to avoid.
• However, what you pass down to your children
consists of much more than these obvious traditions.
Have you ever stopped to think about the impact of
all of your day-to-day interactions with your children?
 GENOGRAM
• Genogram is a very detailed and
elaborate visual representation of
a family tree that maps out
important information on a
family’s hierarchy, history and
quality of relationships through
symbols. These are helpful in
understanding both individuals
and families.
• A well-researched and well-
crafted genogram may have
GENOGRAM’S IMPORTANCE IN THE FAMILY:

• Family and Individual Therapy

 PERFORMANCE TASK 2: MY FAMILY GENOGRAM

Directives: Create a genogram for your family using the inside

part of a long folder.
Make sure to follow the pre-design preparations, rules and
reminders discussed in this module.
Remember to include at least three (3) generations of your
family. Write your assumptions or conclusions based on the
genogram at the back of your folder and explain how you
came up with them.
 PERFORMANCE TASK 2 : CREATING YOUR OWN
FAMILY GENOGRAM

• Here are some pre-design preparations to adhere to:

• Decide on the goal of the genogram.
• Research very well. Remember that you are supposed to get 3 generations worth of
information and so it is necessary to get as many details as you can.
• *Get the right names of the relatives.
*Be ready to do a lot of interviews, phone calls, email correspondence to get
information.
* Prepare a set of questions to guide your research and interviews.
* Ask the right people for information that you want.
* Be objective and make sure information is accurate.
*List down details into categories – Familial Connection, Emotional Relationship,
Medical Condition, and Special Trait.
REMINDERS FOR DESIGNING:

• Make a legend.
• Always start with your immediate family.
• Put significant details only.
• State complete and accurate information
on 3 generations
 RULES AND SYMBOLS IN CREATING
GENOGRAM:
• 1. Gender
• To symbolize a male person, a square is used.
• To symbolize a female person, a circle is used.
• For lesbian, put inverted triangle inside circle.
• For gay, put inverted triangle inside square.
2. Life Status
• Draw an X inside gender symbol if person is already dead.
• Write age of death inside the gender box with X.
• Family Connection
• The male should always be on the left. Female is always on the right.
Connect the two gender symbols with any of the following rules in mind:
• For married couples, draw a solid line underneath to connect them.
• If divorced or annulled, draw the solid line underneath but with 2
slanted lines the middle.
• If separated, draw the solid line underneath them but with 1
slanted line only.
• If widowed, draw the solid line with an X in the middle.
• If couple is cohabitating (living together but not married), draw a
dashed line instead to connect the two, with a small house in the middle.
( Please refer to your module for illustration)
 BIRTH ORDER

• Under the family connection line of parents, attach children’s gender symbols with
the correct line. In drawing oldest to youngest children, start from left to right.
• Draw a solid line if biological child.
• Draw broken lines if child is adopted.
• If identical twins, connect the two gender symbols together with a solid line
and connect the two gender symbols to the family connection line.
• If twins are not identical, no need to connect the gender symbols together
just draw line from both gender symbols and connect together at the family
connection line.
• If child is still unborn, meaning mother is still pregnant with him/her, a
triangle takes the place of the square or circle.
