INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW TO UTILIZE THE GENOGRAM

Basically what I want you to do is create a case study (a fictional story) about the family that is listed on the genogram (attached) and make the topic about divorce.

· Introduce case study: Maybe try statistics of divorce? How did the divorce affect the children? Divorce runs in the family?

· Briefly elaborate about each person (maybe 3-5 sentences) makeup what they do for a living, how they are related (based on the geno gram) and personality etc.

Grandpa Cornell: age 88 divorced

Grandma Star: age 86 divorced

Aunt Kim: age 54 never married

Aunt Nessa: age 54 divorced

Uncle Donald: age 57 never married

Grandpa Beaux: age 86 married for 30 years

Grandma Sonia: age 87 married for 30 years

Mother Katina: age 56 divorced

Father Chris: age 58 divorced

Uncle Charles: age 55 never married

Aunt Gloria: age 53 never married

Uncle Steven: age 50 never married

Child Adrian: age 16 marijuana

Child Dante: age 14 he plays football

Child Taylor: age 14 she is a cheerleader

Child Camille: age 8 anger issues, failing, was an A and B student, plays volleyball but grades dropped

Child Jaylon: age 10 he plays basketball

· Example: Grandma Star and Grandpa Cornell are divorced. Two out of four of their children are divorced as well. The Father Chris and mother Katina are divorced and it has affected their two out of five of their children. The oldest: Adrian, 16 began to turn to recreational drugs to cope with divorce (he is smoking marijuana, talk about it being a gateway drug etc). The youngest: Camille, 8 started to have behavior issues in school (further elaborate school problems such as fights or bad grades). Adrian and Camille have a broken relationship with their parents Chris and Katina.

· Evidence-Based Interventions: These are suggested links you can use to find evidence based interventions for children dealing with divorce.
