Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Scapegoating is defined as blaming family problems on a member of the family who is not very powerful.The purpose of the blaming is to keep the focus off painful issues and off the blamers themselves.A double-bind,such as "You have to express your feelings more,but not if... ," involves giving instructions that are inherently contradictory or that place the person in a no-win situation."Tom will tell you…" is an example of triangulation,wherein a third party is engaged to help stabilize an unstable pair within the family.A child assuming parental responsibilities (e.g. ,caring for siblings)because a parent fails to do so is an example of blurred boundaries.
