Abstract
This paper presents a case study of the Dunphys’ in the American TV series Modern Family to examine the discourse between parents and children from the perspective of Satir’s Iceberg Theory and to investigate the influence of discourse on parent-child relationships. The study argues that parents should cultivate the ability to position themselves within the “relationship” rather than the “change.” In addition, the study emphasizes the importance of children’s capacity to think from others’ perspectives and avoid imposing their own perceived correct views on others.
