So this week we talked a lot of unspoken rules and family dynamics. One of the unspoken rules in my family is that if dad wants the tv, he gets it. It is his house and he is in charge. Also another unspoken rule is that we as children try to get along and love one another. If we fight, my parents get really upset. Respect is a really big deal in our family. You respect one another, and you in turn will get respect back. It's really important that you try to marry someone who has the same basic "rules" as you do.
