When we say family, we can think of society in miniature. That is why family life can be the scene of beautiful moments as well as troubled moments. The way to overcome such problems is through communication, as in every problem. Communication within the family is the most important issue in preventing small problems from causing big resentments.

Instead of finding temporary solutions or covering up problems, we have stronger relationships when emotions and mistakes are openly discussed. 

When you are able to communicate with your family, you begin to understand why they think differently than you do, and you begin to understand the underlying causes of disagreements. It allows you to see things from different perspectives. It brings the problem to a solution.

Lack of communication underlies many issues between family members. When you get together with your family to talk about your problems, you open up the channels of communication. In this way, you can clearly identify what is causing problems for all parties and ensure that everyone contributes to the solution. It prevents gossip.

Family members may like to talk about each other, and this happens in every family, but sometimes it can be exaggerated and the topic can be deflected to the detriment of the person being talked about. Over time, the topic can become something everyone knows, far from the truth. Instead of gossiping, strengthening your communication with the family member and asking what he/she is going through, how the event unfolded and what you are curious about prevents false gossip about that person. Provides support.

In the system we call family, each individual shares good and bad times with each other. In a well-communicating family, individuals know each other's needs, likes and dislikes very well and can provide adequate and appropriate support when needed. Having someone to listen to you even when you are faced with an unsolvable problem reduces your stress and sadness. It brings family members closer.

Safe communication with family members strengthens the love you share and strengthens your bonds. When problems arise, if you have built strong bonds with your family, you have a safe haven.

Healthy communication with family members is not a difficult task under normal circumstances. But when conflicts arise, you may feel that your communication channels with the other person are suddenly closed. Trying to cover up the problem or cutting off communication completely are not the right ways to deal with these problems.

In many families, what is done when a problem arises is to cut off communication with that individual and not see them. This can lead to a breakdown in communication not only with the person with whom you have a problem, but also with other members of the family.

If you often argue with your family or have difficulty solving problems, you can get help with problem-solving skills.
