• Family interaction (such as husband-wife relationships). Parents may be protective, dependent, independent, cooperative with each other; other siblings may be supportive, competitive, rebellious.
• Family functions (such as economic functions, recreation functions). The family of a child with a disability may need to plan its recreation carefully to allow for the fullest possible participation of all the children.
