So can anyone define 'functional family' to me? I have never seen a family that wasn't disfunctional on some

Question

level. Anybody agree with me ? or can anybody show me an example of the perfect family? ..other than Ward and June Cleaver et al?

Answer 1

There will be no definitions handed out today as the family unit is dysfunction in and of itself. And that is okay ... makes for conversation, learning, developing, loving, disagreeing .. a whole spectrum of social attitudes/ethics come from this dysfunction. Now the way we don't get screwed by this development stumbling block is being honest. You have a short window of time to instill any hope of "honesty" ... you miss the boat on that one and you are screwed.

And that's how I feel and I am sticking to it!

Answer 2

The time will come. This is the prophecy:
Malachi 4:4-6

4 “ Remember the Law of Moses, My servant,
Which I commanded him in Horeb for all Israel,
With the statutes and judgments.
5 Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet
Before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the LORD.
6 And he will turn
The hearts of the fathers to the children,
And the hearts of the children to their fathers,
Lest I come and strike the earth with a curse.”

Answer 3

there are actually more functional families than dysfunctional...this distortion was created by researchers to generate a generation of therapy seekers and boost the normalization of moral relativism,,,the cause of dysfunctionality in an ordered society.

Answer 5

Answer 6

I think my family is pretty perfect. I can't think of anything wrong with them. We barely even disagree. Even my extended family is pretty perfect. There are a few black sheep, though. I never knew growing up that there really were dysfunctional families.
