Despite such a title, the conversation, of course, will not be about the weather in the true sense of the word. It often happens that outwardly everything seems to be fine in the family, but there is no feeling of comfort and warmth in the house.

How to figure out that everything is not going as it should in the house?
Buying another beautiful thing, so praised in the next advertisement, we think that finally, we have what we need to create a homely cozy environment, now we will put it where it is needed and everything will fall into place - the husband will no longer frown, and the children will no longer be pampered and capricious. Then suddenly we remember that we saw in the magazine another small thing for the kitchen, it is also necessary to buy it, in order to consolidate success, as they say.
The standards of "prosperous life" and "family comfort" imposed by advertising on television, in newspapers and magazines depend on how many things should be in the house, what brand of household and office equipment we will buy. Sometimes we do not notice that there is no general mood in the house, there is no warmth of relationships, there is no notorious comfort, which we have been striving for so much and for the creation of which we seem to have put so much effort, but still we notice that all family members behave like granite monuments.
Having lived for many years in a country where people were instilled with a disregard for things, calling it all "philistinism", but in fact the rulers simply failed to manage the economy, many could not restrain themselves when the opportunity arose to buy what was previously in short supply. Having hit the other extreme, they simply did not notice how the desire to have many things replaced the simple joy of communicating with their loved ones. After all, in order to have expensive things in the house, you need money, and you need to earn it, so the more you work, the more you have. The houses are filled with many expensive household items, the renovated apartments surprise with design delights. But something was missing. What then?
As you can see, a lot has been written about things, but almost nothing has been written about how family members communicate with each other. Because they do not have time to do this, parents get tired at work and at first do not notice how the children move away from them, as well as they themselves almost do not talk to each other. It is good if the family has preserved the traditions of having lunch or dinner at the same table, this gives time for communication and at least somehow brings family members together.
Of course, it is very convenient to use all the achievements of technological progress and it is necessary to do so. After all, all this makes life easier and people have more and more time to do some other things and, it would seem, family life should become happier. If this does not happen, then something is wrong, contact has been lost, the closeness that should be present in the family has been lost, and perhaps it is time to take a fresh look at what it should be like - a cozy home. Home is our fortress and this is true, only this fortress should be strong not with locks and locks, but with love and mutual understanding between family members. Peace to you and comfort in your home.
