Ecological theory shows the
importance of the relationship between a marriage/family and their social environments. It focus’s on key points like the individual themselves, the
dynamics between different settings in a persons life and their personal relationships,
external settings that can affect a person, and more of the “big picture”
within society, and how these effects happen over time. I believe that this
theory best describes the issues of family and marriages, because it shows the
affects of it from all different point of views. A marriage ends or a family
separates due to the outside sources that put pressure and effect everyday life
of that marriage/family. I chose this picture of a man who is clearly stressed
out at work, because it can relate to the external system by which if he brings
that stress home it can be projected on his marriage/family. Work can be a big
stressor in a marriage because we tend to take our frustration or anger out on
our partners when they are not the ones who caused it.
