System


 System is composed of individual elements and group of interacting that mutually affect each other. A sub-system is also part of another system, while at the same time is own system.  When our society verbalizes “system” “which means “organization”, “mechanism “and “method”.

 System, the Latin word called” systema” is the etymological of the word, “whole compounded of several parts or members, system", literary "composition"[1]

 Let think about human society. Each individual has been living implications to others. Human beings are not being able to live alone. The society formed by each single family and each family consists of each individual.

 Dr. Murray Bowen, M.D., was an American psychiatrist and one of the pioneer of family therapy and founder of systemic therapy. He developed a system theory of the family. He said that “Families are systems of interconnected and interdependent individuals, none of whom can be understood in isolation from the system” [2]

 H. Dan Smith who is the professor of California State University said “In recent years, the view of the family as a "system" has become an increasingly popular and important theoretical framework for counselors and family therapy professionals. [3]

 The family is that consists of around a person who is in kinship and couple. The family system, husband and wife, father and son, mother and child, siblings consist of the specific sub-systems respectively. It is important as the role of the family is support each other mentally and economically, parents take care of children and everyone to grow together.

Each family member has own responsibility. If an individual does not fulfill their responsibility, building a healthy family is difficult and does not function well.
