I've found that many people classify their family as dysfunctional - making this known to the public is a whole thing altogether though. I want to know where you draw the line between being a truly dysfunctional family and one that has its "normal" share of quirks, conflicts and turbulances?

knowone knows how to communicate with one another at a normal level so they rather just seperate and not communicate. kinda like ignoring or avoiding your family cause you might think its the best way to be rather than be in their face yelling at them for the way you think they should behave. Others might even have to be impaired just to see you even if its very seldom cause they don't know how to act or be comfortable with themselves so they mask it..You draw the line when you have family that live 30 feet away and you never see because its just plain dysfunctional. If you start to see than all hell breaks loose cause you simply cannot get along and realize its for the better to make up excuses rather than blame.

family is the main source of the society, if someone did not act in proper manner the family are not good at them. Or the family are not decipline them better. The manner always start in family development. Good family relationship goes in better place and environment.

sometimes disfunction is the only function.... people define it differently ... and yes most families have a lil bit of disfunction whether it is a disfunctional relative or a disfuncional situation.

I believe every family is dysfuntional. It's just a matter of who openly admits it and actually talks about it. Just my opinion.
