This chapter focuses on a review of the skills learned during treatment, with an emphasis on how they have been applied successfully to address challenges at home. It guides the therapist in processing treatment gains and highlighting changes that all family members have made. It outlines additional in-session skills practice, including exposure tasks, praise, and self-soothing exercises. It emphasizes that total mastery of these skills following a short course of family therapy is not expected. Rather, the goal is to keep practicing and refining these skills at home. It concludes with psychoeducation about relapse prevention as well as an opportunity to process family feelings about termination.

This paper presents a treatment method in cases where grieving for the death of a child extends beyond normal parameters. The symptoms of interminable grief are likely to continue unless there is direct, and often dramatic intervention. Guidelines for clinical assessment are presented, with particular emphasis upon the investigation of family history in which an early, unresolved death may have occurred. This approach integrates grief work with the individual into a family therapy framework and reflects the notion that grieving, even if identified in one person, is a family affair. Criteria for the inclusion of family members in treatment are considered, the stresses upon the therapist are addressed, a course of treatment is outlined, and two representative cases are presented.

In 209 families with schizophrenic children, 18 families with more than one abnormal child were found. Among the parents of this group there was a high incidence of marital discord, schizoid personalities and different forms of schizophrenia. Among the siblings mental defect, speech delay, and schizophrenia were found. Because of the high incidence of the children in this group functioning on a mentally defective level, special attention was paid to the problem of the intellectual function of all family members. Twenty-four (40%) of the 60 children in these 18 families studied presented a picture of intellectual defects along with schizophrenic process. In three (5%) mental defect was found without typical symptoms of childhood schizophrenia. None of the parents were found to be mentally defective and only one was found to be of borderline intelligence. Twenty (55%) parents were of normal intelligence and 15 (42%) were bright normal to superior, while the corresponding figures for the children were 22 (36.6%) and six (10%). There were only four children whose intellectual function improved while there were 16 who deteriorated considerably. There was an unexplained finding of an unusually high number of twins among the 18 families. We found five pairs of twins. Two pairs were monozygotic, concordant for schizophrenia. Two pairs were dizygotic, discordant for schizophrenia. One of the fifth pair died early; the second was mentally defective.

In a population of hospitalized children, 45% of the 611 parents whose children qualified for day care stated they would have preferred day care if such an alternative had been available at the time and if the choice of type of care had been left to them. Factors which seemed related to the parents' choice of care were the child's age, the distance from home to hospital, the parents' education, the parents' perception of the degree of safety afforded by hospitalization, and the ability to make the necessary arrangements to care for the child at home following day care. No relationship was found between parental choice of care and such variables as type of day care recommended (medical or surgical), sex of child, number of employed family members, occupational class, and family income.

Northern black soldiers and their families continued to support the Union effort. In spite of pay issues, discrimination and racism by northerners and southerners, the general hardships of military life, and the potential hardships for their families, black men continued to enlist in large numbers. Yet, for some families, conditions at home had become too hopeless. They had moved beyond the unequal pay issue as well as the army’s inability to pay their soldiers monthly. They had gone on as long as they could without the financial support of their men and had reached the point where they simply wanted their soldiers home. These family members asked Union officials for their soldiers to be discharged because the family’s situation was so desperate the only resolution was for the soldiers to return home. Often the requests were for discharges of underage sons, who continued to enlist through deceitfulness about their age.
