What did Laing focus much of his research and why
.families with at least one member diagnosed with schizophrenia
.dysfunctional family dynamics could contribute to the development of mental illnesses like schizophrenia-it might be a rational response to an irrational and oppressive family environment rather than a biological disorder
.families are often the cause of stress ,control ,oppression ,guilt which lead to feelings of alienation and anxiety
.which can go unnoticed due to the idealistic perspective of the family as nurturing and harmonious (functionalist view)
