[quote=Anonymous]I would assume yes because the dysfunction is passed down through the generations unless a person gets help and breaks the cycle. I would assume it would be the same in functional families. However this is the funny thing, lots of dysfunctional families actually think they are successful functional families. They cannot see the dysfunction. It is normal to them. That is why if someone says they come from a close family I now see it as a red flag. Most people in these 'close' families are somewhat dysfunctional. They almost speak like they are a clan, and any newcomers have to prove themselves to be accepted into the fold. Their lives then reflect this mentality. The functional families I know have not described themselves as close, ever. They do however in their actions and words show a very close supportive loving family.[/quote]
