From raising children to getting along with the in–laws, what do people with close and loving families do differently to those with strained or unfulfilling relationships? Sociologists, therapists, and psychologists have spent entire careers investigating the ins and outs of family dynamics, yet their findings are inaccessible to ordinary people, hidden in obscure journals to be shared only with other experts.
Now, David Niven, the internationally bestselling author of The 100 Simple Secrets series, has collected the most current and significant data from more than a thousand of the best scientific studies on families and spelt out the findings in plain English. The findings have been boiled down to 100 essential ways to find and maintain love, joy, and satisfaction in all family relationships, and each statistic is accompanied by a true story about a real family showing the results in action.
DON FORGET THE PAST: Parents who share stories of family history with their children create higher levels of concern for family members and increase the likelihood of their childrens happiness.
NO PRICE TAG: Once basic necessities are met, the increasing economic status of a family has no effect on the likelihood of its members feeling satisfied with life.
LET EVERY OPINION BE HEARD: Senior citizens having trouble living in their own homes are 84% more likely to be satisfied with their housing situation if they feel their concerns are an important part of selecting a new home or facility.
