DO NOT under any circumstances describe or name family members nor provide any specific details about any other particular individuals nor personal relationship/family situations

·

· For example, if you reference a family member, it is by title only : mother, father, sister, brother, partner

· No names, no specifics, adjectives, negative terms, labels, family events, etc

· This paper is an opportunity for you to objectively consider BOWEN THEORY and explain how you understand it and how it would be beneficial for yourself, your family and families in society. This does not necessitate detailed personal information about your family or family situations.

· DO NOT malign, disparage, disrespect,  nor negatively label ANY PERSON in your submission.

Contact me directly if you have any questions.

To complete this paper, after reading the assigned material from EXTRAORDINARY RELATIONSHIPS, 2nd edition:

· Copy and paste the template below into a document

· Answer the prompts/questions, one by one.

· This means that each answer is DIRECTLY BELOW the prompt

· Copy and paste the entire document, including the template, into the Assignment PAPER 1 into the Assignment Text Box.

· DO NOT ERASE the prompts/template.

· Please note, DR. ROBERTA GILBERT is the author of the book EXTRAORDINARY RELATIONSHIPS 2nd ed, a book that is about 
BOWEN THEORY, the theory formulated and developed by DR. MURRAY BOWEN. Dr. Gilbert 
DID NOT 
develop /formulate the theory. In your paper,  do not reference the material as Dr. Gilbert’s theory, reference the material as 
DR MURRAY BOWEN’s THEORY 
or 
BOWEN THEORY

I regret highlighting the information below in this fashion but I know of no other method in which to emphasize the significance and importance of the information.

Please note: this assignment REQUIRES GILBERT 2nd Ed.

DO NOT attempt to use GILBERT 1st edition. I have been using Dr. Gilbert’s materials in marriage and family training since 1992. I am very familiar with the differences between the editions. If you use the 1st edition, your paper will earn ZERO POINTS and you will not be able to redo the paper. 

Additionally, DO NOT USE THE CHERLIN BOOK IN THIS ASSIGNMENT. These prompts are not applicable to CHERLIN. Your paper will earn a ZERO if you use the CHERLIN book and you will not be able to redo the paper. 

This assignment clearly asks for and requires the Gilbert 2nd ed.
