We are all the products of our environments and family lives...

So were you part of a dysfunctional family or a sane family?

..So were you part of a dysfunctional family or a sane family?

COMpletely dysfunctional.
Parents married 11 times between them.
10-12 siblings, depending upon who you talk to.
Some I have never met AND as young as as 15.

My Mother, in the Home, no doubt resting up after
her 8 marriages, and still hitting on the incoming
male members (she is known as the Black Widow, her
many husbands, most deceased under circumstances
best left unquestioned, but with fiscal repercussions
quite positive for her) well, when the families find
out who their Daddy has been seen chatting with, Daddy
is quickly moved on to another Home.

Apparently this perplexes her.

My Dad's last mistress, cum wife, had a child before
he died, and one after. She was 34 years younger and
quickly built a new 15 million dollar home near
Bill Gates in a gated and gun guarded community...kids
shipped off to boarding schools.

I left home at 18, never to return.
Never wanted to.
I could well be the only sane one.

Depending upon who you talk to :-)

Dysfunctional functional. My family is full of unique happy spirited people, only one seriously bad person who is no longer with us and lots of love.

i guess
i could say
that i have some what of a sane family

(lol im in the insane one lol)


my parents were married for 21yrs
they got divorced
36yrs ago

there divorce was final
the day my sister got married
that was pretty bad
my mom was so plowed off her butt


my dad married his secatary of 10years 6months after my parents divorce was finalized (yea we kinda think they were having a fling)
but of course my dad wouldnt admit that
they were married for 32yrs
my step mom died 3yrs ago of cancer


my mom has a brother
that totally had some issue
with his life
he was a drunk, and drug addict
he has been sober and clean for 24yrs
with the help of his gf

his only son(he has 4 daughters)
died from alcohol poison 23yrs ago he was 28yrs old
and left a gf and 3kids behind

the nite before the funeral
his sisters, there mom and another cousin
got drunk

not thinking what had happen

there mom was also alcoholic
i think she has been clean as well for quit sometime



my mom
was not only my mom
but she was the neighborhood campfire leader
so everyone called her mom

she was also the father and mother
for my dad was hardly ever home

when we needed him, he wasent there
and when we didnt need him, he was there

and yepps my mom wore aprin. for she was always cooking

you want to hear a soap opera

i have a friend that i have known for over 30yrs

i went to school with 2 of her cousins
and they were teen mothers
the rumor that was going around of who the father of there kids were
it was either the brother or there grandfather

as to find out the granddfather was the father of there kids

now my friend that i have known for 30yrs
her grandfather is also her father..

now i can tell this much
she has been going through counsling for over 30yrs
do to all this abuse

her mom was 14yrs old and she had 7 younger syblings
from the same man ( her father)

my frien went through s'it
she was not only alocolic but a drug abuser for yrs
which i can understand why
she even blamed herself for what her grandfather did... thats not her fault

now you tel me
would you deal with this kind of family ( ME HECK NO)

she was brought up by her grandparents and she never knew her mom

her grandmother tried to leave a number of times
but he would beat her

my friend was saying that the indians dont belive in divorce so she didnt have a choice of the matter

her grandmother died sometime back

but her grandfather (who should had been dead along time ago is still alive)


her grandfather was actually put in jail
with the help of my friends aunt
who help her get the nerve to press charges

but the courts only gave him 5yrs

thats bunch of crock u ask me
to compare to the mother that was resenly got charged for 99yrs for abusing her 2yr old daughter..

Wow, what a cool question. I guess to some people my family would have been slightly dysfunctional. To others, as sane as the next family. So I guess we were...
happily dysfunctional? huh bigsmile I have five siblings and we each have our own quirks. But then again, doesn't everyone have their own quirk or two? :wink: laugh
