Perhaps Rita,
the children are already overly involved in the parents relationship? and that
may be a key,
I have done a gentle process with a number of parents and their child by simply
having each of them
set the family up as they see it so that they share their internal
representation without necessarily going any further
they might discuss, this is how i feel about this....etc. Very useful for
younger children i have found and
the parent has another insight as to what the child sees. This tho was in a
private consultation
kindly, Jonine

Hi Rita, In our constellations process it seems that the entire family is
having their constellation facilitated even if only one of them is
physically present. With love, Diane
