ABSTRACT
With rapid changes in modern societies, abrupt increases in knowledges and fast conversions in technologies have caused serious generation gaps among members of the family. This have generated problems for housewives who is generally in charge of maintaining and coordinating a family with limited life experiences and knowledges earned only through several years of school education, to resolve every problems evoked in their families. This has made us to realize the needs for the education related to the family life. Especially for middle-aged housewives, this type of education is absolutely required to maintain ideal family relationships, and this can be accomplished by improving their abilities and potentials. The 8-step program to improve the relationship between middle-aged housewives and their children was developed. Overall, this program improved the self-respect and psychological well-being of middle-aged housewives. Also, the relationship with their children was greatly improved through better understanding and communication. This was solely reflected on the quantitative evaluations through pre-and post-tests, so that all the participants scored higher in the post-test.
