The Brady bunch....

I am not sure what makes a dysfunctional family but I may know what one example may contain.  I am also not sure of how to trim a seven hundred page manual on it into a blog posting!  I did the laugh there that you would expect if you were me.  I grew up in so much dysfunction I wouldn't know were to start and wont begin to go to far into it.  Possibly another day with another angle.  Many, many good things came from our families very sick and dysfunctional background.  There were six of us kids and we all have done quite well.  Three of us are doing very well and the other three are doing well enough I would venture to say of them.  I also think every family including the Brady's have and need dysfunction on some level or scale.   Dysfunction is everywhere, not just in the family.  It is normal and regretfully sometimes everywhere we go.  And sometimes the level of dysfunction really isn't available in words, horrible is a good start though.  From never being able to figure out a burger with no pickles and extra onions PLEASE to our Government constantly on every level never being able to function without the dysfunction.  I see it everywhere and always have.  Some worse and more detrimental to others than some, some not necessarily bad but all of it dysfunctional and all of it affecting something else mostly adversely.  Function and dysfunction go together like butter and toast I think.  Or as I see it.  My immediate family now is absolutely wonderful and I honestly wouldn't change much.  I was going to say anything there but realized instantly that a few minor tweaks here and there if I were able to could be alright!  There is dysfunction in many areas of my family now.  Some of it is simply male confusion that hinders man and wife communication!  We figure it out, and some of it sticks around to baffle and continue to make me scratch my head and continue to wonder why is that so dysfunctional.  I think I may use different definitions than I have used here but all the same.  None of it is the really bad dysfunction, the healthy good stuff outweighs the bad 95-01.  Growing up it was almost reversed.  But as I said before, thankfully the flowers can still bloom even without all of the nutrients it needs to bloom. Sometimes that incredible adversity in a really dysfunctional family creates wonderful, fully functional future mostly non dysfunctional families!
