Besides, Emil Salim in 1983 states that the family is the smallest part of the structure of society that will be the basis in creating a country.
According to a psychological sense, the family is a group of people living together in a dwelling together and each member feel their inner linkage resulting in mutual influence, mutual regard and mutual submission (Soelaeman 1994: 5-10).
Meanwhile, in the sense Pedadogis family is "a" communion of life is woven by love between two human couples that strengthen marriage, which means to enhance mutual self-contained realization that the role and function as a parent (SOELAEMAN 1994: 12).

Families do an interaction pattern that is repeated through the participation of all its members. Family counseling strategies mainly assist the maintenance of family relationships, is also required to modify the patterns in a transaction meeting the needs of family members who are subject to change.
In the perspective of the relationship, the family counselor does not eliminate the significance of the individual's intrapsychic process, but put the behavior of individuals in a broader view. Thus, there is a paradigm shift from traditional ways to understand human behavior into epistimologi cybernetic. This paradigm emphasizes the feedback mechanism operates in generating stability and change. Causality is circular in many homes. A family counselor more focused understanding of the family rather than seeking explanations that are linear. Within this framework, the patient's symptoms indicated seen as a reflection of the family system that is not balanced
c. Family development
One way to understand individuals and their families, that is by examining their progress through the cycle of family life. Sustainable and change is a hallmark of family life. The family system is progressing all the time. Family development generally occurs regularly and gradually. In the event of stagnation in the family, it will disrupt the family system. The emergence of symptomatic behaviors in family members at the time of transition in the life cycle of the family signifies family had difficulty in adjusting to the changes.
Family life cycle leads to an arrangement of the theme of the view that the family as a system to change. There are special development tasks that must be met for each development.
In the family, men and women grew up with different role expectations, experiences, goals, and opportunities. These sex differences, influences the interaction later married. The number of women entering the work force these days affects also the tradition of the roles of men and women on household responsibilities and work outside the home.
Ethnicity and socio-economic considerations also affect the family's lifestyle. First, the thing to note is to help determine how the family was formed indigo-value, determine the patterns of behavior, and determine ways to express emotions, and determine how they evolve through the family life cycle. Living in poverty can erode the family structure and create a family that is not organized.

The absence of the father at home allows the grandmother, mother and daughter were more interconnected.

Family roles are largely static, it should be understood by family members to help establish and regulate the function of the family. The balance is achieved within the family through the process of dynamic interaction. This helps restore stability at times threatened, namely the activation of rules that describe relationships. At the time of family change occurs, the cycle of positive and negative feedback to help restore the balance.
Subsystems in the family perform the functions of the family in particular. The most important thing and mean is a subsystem of husband and wife, parents, and siblings. The boundaries of the system to help separate the system-system, as well as separate sub-subsystem in the system as a whole.
Family systems interact with other systems of greater outside the home, such as the system of places of worship, schools and nursing homes.
