,Case study A married couple, Rati (30 years) and Ben (33 years) are
blessed with two children, 10 and 15 years old. They have been
married for five years. Since Ben was retrenched at work, he has
been abusing drugs and alcohol. Thus, he fails to control his temper
when he is spending time with his family. The couple argue every
day, even about small issues. At times, the arguments result in
physical violence. Rati has told her close cousin about the ongoing
abuse she has been experiencing. She has indicated that Ben
frequently insults her and has become physically violent on several
occasions. Rati is concerned about her well-being and that of her
children. Questions 1. In social work, a variety of assessment tools
are employed to assess clients' situations before developing an
intervention strategy/plan. Plot Rati’s family on a genogram and
ecomap. a) Provide a detailed graphic representation of a family tree
(genogram) that displays detailed data on relationships among
individuals within Rati’s family. Please interpret the genogram. [15]
b) Provide a visual representation of different systems (ecomap) that
have an impact on the life of the couple and their children. Please
interpret the ecomap. [15]
Creating a genogram and ecomap for Rati's family involves visually
representing their relationships and the systems influencing their
lives. Let's outline both of these representations.
Genogram
A genogram is a visual representation of a family tree that shows
detailed data on relationships among individuals. Here’s how Rati’s
genogram might look based on the information provided:

Rati (30) ─ Ben (33)

Children:
│
├─ Child 1 (15)
│
└─ Child 2 (10)
Interpretation of the Genogram:
• Rati and Ben are the parents of two children, aged 15 and 10.
• There are no additional family members mentioned (like
parents or siblings), so the genogram is straightforward.
Ecomap
An ecomap is a visual representation that shows the social and
ecological factors surrounding an individual or family. Here’s how
Rati’s ecomap might look based on the given information:
