Family Resilience Theory is a “dynamic process encompassing positive adaptation under adversity” by Luthar et al. The ability to adapt under stress and can be taught by their family surrounding. This shows how important family structure turn out to be for children. Strong family bonds, and communication seems strengthen a child’s life.
