“…As we have already noted, the concept of symmetry underpins key expectations of friendships (Hall, 2011). Symmetry is also considered important to family relationships; family therapies such as contextual therapy emphasize that justice, equity, and fairness in family relationships derives from a balance of give and take (Goff, 2001).

However, some authors have criticized such transactional depictions of relationships as overemphasizing individuals and their rights (Goff, 2001).…”

“…Terapinin diğer hedefleri, aile sistemler yaklaşımları kapsamında yer alan yöntem ve teknikleri kullanarak, problemi ve rolleri yeniden tanımlama, aile üyeleri arasındaki ilişkileri yeniden düzenleme ve sınırların yeniden çizilmesi olmalıdır. Goff (2001), bağlamsal aile terapisi yaklaşımı çerçevesinde, ebeveynleşmiş çocuklar ve aileleriyle çalışırken dikkat edilmesi gereken bazı ilkeler sıralamıştır.
