Systems theory focuses on the relationships between entities, objects or individuals who co-exist within a larger organization, group, or system. Systems theory lends itself very well to studying families and relationships because it recognizes that no couple or family is an island, but rather, every family exists within a larger social environment that includes extended family members, friends, co-workers, acquaintances and society at large. As such, systems theory is an excellent framework from which to examine communication and functioning within families and relationships. Genograms are conceptually very similar to family trees, except that they go beyond demonstrating simple biological and matrimonial bonds. Rather, they provide more detailed information, in a graphical manner, about the various relationships between people who exist within a family. By using different colors, patterns and symbols, individuals can work together with a therapist to build a genogram of their family that represents a great...
For example, abusive relationships can be indicated with one color while supportive relationships are indicated by another. The genogram allows individuals to represent their family in terms of emotional relationships as well as specific circumstances, such as mental and physical health issues or socioeconomic issues that exist within the family system. As such, by looking at a family's genogram it is possible to learn a great deal about how the family communicates and functions.
On my first session with Beth and David I would first ask Beth to describe the genogram to David and I. I would ask her to explain what all the various colors and symbols mean and then ask her what she thinks about the accuracy and usefulness of the genogram. One of the things that can be highlighted by a genogram is how communication and behavior can be passed from one generation to the next. I would ask Beth to think about what communication skills she has learned, either good or bad, by being a member of her family system. Next, I would ask David to think about the same question, even…

Beth B. v. Lake Bluff School District 65 This case involved a determination of the appropriate placement for Beth B., a twelve-year-old girl with Rett Syndrome. Rett Syndrome, a condition that only affects girls, is generally considered a form of Autism and can significantly or profoundly impact a student's ability to function on several different dimensions. It is believed that her motor skills are somewhere in the five to seven-month range.

He found that task would have been difficult if not impossible, partly because of the lack of research on Rett Syndrome. He found instead that the law required him only to decide whether or not the plan put forth
