In a time where everyone wants to live their life on their own terms, being emotionally intelligent in family relationships might be a challenge especially when it comes to dealing with parents. Every human has been given complete right to live his/her life according to what he/she wants and needs.
This present day or lets say today's 'Modern World' of living one's life might be a huge set back to parents who themselves used to live under their own parents expectations, pressures and 'Their' rules.
Breaking these so called 'Rules and Regulations' that have been set throughout the past decades or centuries is now a huge challenge faced by today's generation especially the youth.
This is where being Emotional Intelligent with family comes in.
Dealing with difficult situations involves;
1. Creating a safe place for clear communication to avoid triggers.
2. Trust and resilience.
3. Setting boundries
4. Self care and support.
The best way to deal with family situations is through communication and listening, providing a safe space where everyone can open up and share whatever they want without being judged. Accepting and validating emotions is to acknowledge your own and others feelings, but keep in mind you don't need to 'Fix' nor 'Change' them. Change will come once the communication is open and clear.
Now how emotionally intelligent are 'You' when it comes to dealing with family terms? Ask yourself the following questions to see where you stand.
1. How family oriented are you?
2. How emotionally connected are you?
3. Does your family approach 'You' first?
4. Do you provide a safe place for them to open up?
5. Are you judgmental?
6. Are you able to feel their pain?
Sometimes problems are not around you, they might be 'Within' you.
