Then, if possible, please go back two generations. Remember, a &nbsp;genogram is <em><strong>more<\/strong><\/em> than a family tree. You need &nbsp;to identify relationships and their status (strong, weak, abusive, &nbsp;etc.), behavioral patterns (teen pregnancy, divorce, substance abuse, &nbsp;etc.), health issues and\/or any other issues that you know of or become &nbsp;aware of during your research.<\/p>\n<p>Please &nbsp;complete your genogram using genopro.com, as a Word doc using whatever &nbsp;shapes, symbols, colors, etc. you want, or you can draw your genogram by &nbsp;hand, scan it, and upload it as an attachment. PLEASE keep in mind that &nbsp;this is not an art class &#8211; I&#8217;m not looking for a masterpiece.
