While there has been some dysfunction in my family, especially in regards to abuse, custody battles, cheating, and family drama, I wouldn't say that my family is that dysfunctional. Most of the dysfunction was either caused by or worsened by my stepmother and me to some extent (though it was unintentional), but a lot of it died down in died down in high school. I would say that in comparison to most famillies, my family wasn't that dysfunctional.

Kinda, my parents don't love each other, my brother keeps munching off of them, i'm gay and they don't accept me so i have to keep it as a known secret. Housing market sucks so we all live together. It kinda sucks really.

My family used to be dysfunctional but not anymore. My family aren't perfect and do have their own set of issues but both of my parents improved a lot to where I can't really call them dysfunction anymore

My family is pretty normal and well-adjusted these days. Things were more chaotic in the past, but nowadays we're all older and it's really just me that's "the problem" in the family. Not that I'm so awful or anything, it's more like concern on their parts, I think.

My family is just distant these days. I see them in person once a year at Christmas. I text with my dad every so often. My mom is in a nursing home, and doesn't really know who I am anymore.

There's me and my brother. Then there's my mother and her real family. Very clear line lol

Divorce always will destroy a family, just gotta deal with it. Atleast it's better now since before he found my step father, she was a single mother during my childhood who never worked in her life and beat the shit out of us while blaming us being born for her life getting fucked up, so we were basically classed homeless and broke, completely relying on benefits.

My family is successfull and peaceful, I am the only one who failed at contributing to society. Seriously, out of like 30 people (or even more, some I haven't seen for decades) I am the only one who's unhappy. Thats why I don't go to any family meetings like christmas anymore, it makes me too angry to answer all these questions about my mental health

It's really hard to tell… like, my mother is really supportive, but a bit over-depending on me in the same time (I'm kind of trapped, but I don't really know if I want to run away). Last time I saw my father… it was 2010? 2011 maybe. I'm scared that he could try to show up someday. My baby bro is living on his own, not calling me crazy since he moved out. So it's good.

I honestly can't accurately tell how dysfunctional they are. Since I'm a recluse, I don't have much exposure to what families are supposed to be like outside fiction, which I know tend to be heavily unrealistic. Although, I think they're very dysfunctional since I'm 99% sure that mothers aren't supposed to guilt-trip their children by oh-so-conveniently bringing up how they want "God to take [them]" in a horrific car accident just because said children didn't obey them perfectly; fathers aren't supposed to shout at the slightest sign of emotional vulnerability and threaten to beat the shit out of little kids for crying; and siblings aren't supposed to switch from laughing to shouting that you're a hypocritical, scheming piece of shit at the drop of a hat.

That's not even mentioning my extended family! There are far too many things going on over there, but among the many things, I just know that the people who probably thought "they know where home's at" should've left their partners right then and there.

Very fucked up. Life will be difficult for everyone, but the importance of a good family is immeasurable. I don't agree with antinatalism, but I do wish people would actually sit down and think about their situation for 5 fucking minutes before deciding to have a kid. I wish maladjusted couples and evil people would stop having children.

I am not sure. They are mostly very supportive of me aside from trapping and preventing my ctb attempts which I despise them for. My mum can be caring of me but my dad can be disappointed and/or angry at me sometimes so I feel more tense around him and terrified if he shouts at me. I am scared when family members argue with each other but thats just me being sensitive and pathetic when the argument wasn't anything of actual worth.
