Portrayal of Families and Relationships
As societal-norms evolve, a variety of popular entertainment media (books, movies, TV shows, etc.) feature stories of characters who are a part of traditional and non-traditional family or relationship structures. Examples include but are not limited to: traditional families, cohabitation, single-parent households, blended families, same-sex couples, and grandparents as the primary care-givers for their grandchildren.

- Describe a book, movie, or TV show that you are familiar with which features characters in families or personal relationships.
- Select at least two families/relationships from your chosen story and explain the relationship characteristics and dynamics between individuals.
- Apply terminology presented within the module when analyzing the relationships. Be sure to include APA citations for any resources you used as references.
