Introduction
In this paper I will address my multi person system. My system will consist of my family. This paper will also address my subsystem system, which will be my relationship with my brother. Also addressed will be the Ecomap. The Ecomap is a flow diagram that maps family systems. It resembles the solar system. Ecomaps highlight the direction and description of relationships.
