1.Increased stress: Family members tend to gather together during the holiday season, and everyone's expectations, stress, and tension can increase. For example, elders may have expectations for the life and achievements of younger generations, while younger generations may be exhausted by the pressures of work and life.
2.Role conflict: In family gatherings, everyone will play a certain social role, such as children, parents, relatives, etc. The responsibilities and expectations between these roles can lead to conflict, especially when individuals are unable to meet those expectations.
3.Communication Disorders: Lack of effective communication between family members is a significant cause of arguments. Due to the long separation, they may have differences in values, lifestyles, etc., and these differences are easily amplified in the intensive interaction of the festival.
4.Financial burden: The festive season is often accompanied by additional financial expenses, such as the purchase of Chinese New Year goods, gift exchanges, and banquets for family and friends, which can exacerbate tensions between family members.
5.Emotional issues: Reunions with family members during the Chinese New Year may also touch on unresolved emotional issues, such as past disputes, misunderstandings, or family trauma.
6.Alcohol effects: Drinking is often associated with holiday gatherings, and alcohol may reduce people's inhibitions, leading to arguments that would not normally be spoken. February** Dynamic Incentive Program
