Question:
A social worker observes that a client is having trouble communicating with her husband, so she often confides in her sister-in-law about her fears and concerns, hoping that the sister-in-law will be able to assist. The sister-in-law finds that she is becoming increasingly “in the middle” of the problems that exist between her brother and his wife. This situation is known as:
A
Triangulation
explanation
Triangulation occurs when there is anxiety and tension between two individuals that may cause them not to communicate directly. In this situation, they communicate through a third person, leading to the formation of a triangle. Often the two people try to get the third to take each of their sides when disagreements arise.
