FAMILY CARE
Helping Parents Maintain Balance in Their Lives
 The term family has evolved over the years. In the past,
we thought of a “family” as immediate relatives. This
included: Mom, Dad, sisters, brothers, grandparents,
aunts, uncles, cousins and in-laws. With changing times,
families now can be a variety of closely-bonded relationships.
Some of these relationships may include: a single
parent with young children, due to a deceased or noninvolved
parent, a close friend that may not have relatives,
an elderly neighbor whose relatives live out of the area or a
child with special needs, such as autism.
In the past, families were able to depend on their relatives
for support, having grandparents to baby-sit, house-sit or
care for a sick loved one, while the parents went to work
was the norm. Now, the economy requires society to
endure careers that are demanding in order to maintain the
financial stability for a comfortable lifestyle. Balancing
hobbies, friends, and extracurricular activities can be
overwhelming. Our once reliable support system is unavailable
because parents are providing for their families.
