      False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    External pressures and problems, such as poverty, poor housing, and racism, can have a significant impact on all members of a family group. Poverty can lead to financial stress and limited resources, which can affect the overall well-being of the family.

Racism can result in discrimination, prejudice, and unequal opportunities, causing emotional and psychological distress for all family members. Therefore, it is true that external pressures and problems can affect all members of the family group.

  • 2. 

    The presence of the problems and stresses we have been considering does not itself mean that a family is in trouble and in need of social work help. This will depend on:  (Select three)

    • A.

      The seriousness of the difficulties

    • B.

      Whether or not the difficulties are short-standing

    • C.

      Whether or not the difficulties are recognised as problems

    • D.

      The impact on individual family members.

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. The seriousness of the difficulties
    C. Whether or not the difficulties are recognised as problems
    D. The impact on individual family members.
    Explanation
    The presence of problems and stresses in a family does not automatically indicate that the family is in need of social work help. Whether or not the family requires assistance depends on several factors. Firstly, the seriousness of the difficulties is crucial in determining the level of intervention needed. Secondly, the recognition of these difficulties as problems is important, as it indicates the family's willingness to seek help. Lastly, the impact that these difficulties have on individual family members is a significant factor in determining the need for social work intervention.

    Family group work itself can empower family members.

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    B. False
    Explanation
    Family group work can indeed empower family members. Through group work, families can come together to address issues, solve problems, and make decisions collectively. This process allows each family member to have a voice, share their perspectives, and contribute to the overall well-being of the family. By actively participating in group work, family members can develop a sense of empowerment, as they are able to take ownership of their family's dynamics and work towards positive change. Therefore, the given answer that states "False" is incorrect.

Another agency may refer individuals who fall within their jurisdiction or have specific expertise in a particular area. A welfare officer, such as a social worker, may refer individuals based on their assessment of their needs and well-being. The court may refer individuals who are involved in legal proceedings and require additional support or services.

    • A.

      The family has moved.

    • B.

      The family has lost motivation.

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. The family has moved.
    B. The family has lost motivation.
    D. The individual family member applies pressure.
    Explanation
    This answer is correct because it includes all the possible reasons for a family to stop attending meetings. Moving to a new location can make it difficult for the family to continue attending meetings. Losing motivation can also lead to a decrease in attendance as the family may no longer see the value in participating. Additionally, if an individual family member applies pressure to stop attending, it can influence the entire family's decision to no longer participate.
