Dysfunctional Family

A dysfunctional family is one where the relationships between family members are unhealthy or problematic, often leading to emotional distress or conflict. In these families, communication may be poor, parenting could be ineffective or abusive, and there may be patterns of behavior such as neglect, favoritism, or betrayal. Members might struggle with issues like addiction, mental illness, or rigid roles that hinder personal growth. This environment can negatively impact individuals, affecting their ability to form healthy relationships outside the family and potentially leading to long-term emotional or psychological challenges.
