WE NEED TO BE CLOSE TO OUR FAMILY BECAUSE THEY ARE THE ONLY ONES WHO CAN HELP US OR UNDERSTAND US WHEN WE HAVE PROBLEMS.

ALSO, YOU NEED TO RESPECT THEM BECAUSE THEY ARE OLDER THAN US, AND THEY NEED TO RESPECT US FOR BEING THEIR CHILDREN. 

OUR PARENTS SHOULD TAKE THE LEAD SO THEY CAN SUPPORT US AND NOT PUT US DOWN BECAUSE WE DIDN'T REACH THEIR WISH TO BE AMONG THE ACHIEVERS.

WE HAVE TO LOVE OUR FAMILY BECAUSE WITHOUT THEM WE HAVE NO ONE TO ASK FOR HELP, NO ONE TO TALK TO ABOUT OUR PROBLEMS.

FAMILY MUST BE PERCEPTIVE TOWARDS EACH OTHER BECAUSE IT STRENGTHENS FAMILY BONDS, BUILDS CHILDREN'S SELF-ESTEEM, CAN HELP CHILDREN BE GOOD FRIENDS, DEVELOPS POSITIVE BEHAVIORS, ENCOURAGES COMMUNICATION, AND CAN HELP A CHILD'S ACADEMIC PERFORMANCE. 

BEING CLOSE TO YOUR FAMILY CAN MORE FREQUENTLY VISIT PEOPLE YOU CARE ABOUT MORE, WHICH CAN LEAD TO MORE  QUALITY TIME AND MORE FAMILY BONDS. 

THESE BONDS ARE IMPORTANT BECAUSE FAMILY HELPS US  TO GET THROUGH THE MOST DISASTROUS TIMES AND THE BEST TIMES.  FAMILY IS IMPORTANT BECAUSE THEY CAN OFFER SUPPORT AND SECURITY COUPLED WITH UNCONDITIONAL LOVE; THEY WILL ALWAYS LOOK TO SEE WHAT BRINGS OUT IN YOU EVEN IF YOU CAN NOT SEE IT YOURSELF.

LIVING NEAR LOVED ONES CAN ALSO BE HELPFUL IN CASE OF EMERGENCY ITS NICE TO KNOW YOUR FAMILY CAN BE THERE FOR YOU EMOTIONALLY AND PHYSICALLY WHEN THEY LIVE NEARBY.

IT'S SO IMPORTANT TO HAVE A CONNECTION TO OUR FAMILY OR SURROUND OURSELVES WITH FRIENDS FOR SUPPORT AND CONFRONT IN BOTH TIMES OF JOY AND DISTRESS. STUDIES HAVE SHOWN THAT HAVING A SUPPORTIVE RELATIONSHIP IS A STRONG PROTECTIVE FACTOR AGAINST MENTAL ILLNESS  AND BELONGS TO INCREASE OUR MENTAL WELL-BEING.

SOMETIMES I QUESTION MYSELF IS IT SELFISH WHEN YOU MOVE AWAY FROM YOUR FAMILY? BUT NOW I ANSWERED THE QUESTION AND THE ANSWER IS N ITS NOT, ITS NEVER BEEN SELFISH WHEN YOU MOVE AWAY ITS OKAY WHEN YOU WANT O DO SOMETHING BETTER OR HELP YOURSELF. MOVING AFAR FROM YOUR FAMILY IS WHEN YOU AN ADULT AGE IS YOUR RIGHT.
