BHS 430 Topic 6 Assessment; Benchmark - Fictitious Family in Crisis Presentation

A nuclear family is a family with a mom, dad, and their children. Just like with any other family,
nuclear families go through challenges, and may even go through experiences that may require
mental health services. In this presentation, we will review the family from The Incredibles and
review its challenges by looking at:
The Family,
The culture of the family

, The lifespan and developmental stages of each family member,
The parental challenges that accompany each stage
The communication style of the family,
The family’s cohesion and flexibility,
A common familial experience that may require mental health services, and
How implementing religion and spirituality would benefit this family
