　　(2017山东日照一模)No family is perfect-today or at any point in history.But some families get it right a lot more consistently than others.These families develop caring and understanding relationships.They work together,play together,and laugh together.They are united in purpose and in their commitment to one another.Family members support and encourage each other.Parents are devoted to the success of their marriage and family.In fact,these families create a loving family culture.

　　Other families are not so ideal. Members may neglect responsibilities,treat each other unkindly,reject and abandon promises,and engage in physically,emotionally or spiritually abusive behaviors.They may be manipulative (控制欲强的) and critical.Some members may abuse alcohol or other drugs.Family members who keep these destructive practices do so at great cost not only to themselves but to future generations as well.

　　Many people believe that those who grow up in a negative home environment will surely perpetuate the same patterns in their own families.To some extent,research supports these beliefs.For example,studies show a connection between child raising attitudes and behaviors among parents and those of their adult children.If a parent was divorced or less happy in his or her marriage,there is a greater tendency for children to follow suit.

　　The good news is that these findings tell only half the story. Other research shows that passing on negative family characters from generation to generation isn’t a final conclusion. Even if you grew up in a damaging home environment,you can choose different behaviors from those you experienced there. You can stop the negative patterns from flowing downstream to future generations. With education,focused effort,and help from others,you can choose to be a transitional (过渡的) character to change your family culture.
