- Open conversations are important for a relationship in which those involved respect each other.
- Jointly established rules and agreements create a common foundation for the relationship and provide security.
- If the framework is established, not every individual case must be decided. This relieves the burden in everyday life and avoids too many stressful conversations.
- Clear rules make it easier for all involved to deal with suddenly arising difficult situations.
- The larger a family is, the more diverse are the relationships among themselves and the respective ideas. Reliable agreements weld together.
