2. Clarify and Discuss the family structure you have created thus far (or perhaps intend to create if you have not done so).
3. Identify and Discuss ways in which your family’s cultural roots are reflected in its current structure and function? Be specific.
4. Describe and Explain Heine’s ideas (Ch. 3) on persistence of culture, as it might relate in your family history and current structure.
5. Explain how your family’s structure and function might have affected the kind of person you are?
