Family dysfunction
Family dysfunction is the condition of families that are unhappy because of a lack of communication, caring and empathy between its members. There may even be bullying or abuse or severe addiction problems occurring within the family unit, so that children growing up within them are affected psychologically to the extent that it affects their future development mentally and emotionally.
Some of the symptoms of family dysfunction include:
- denial — in the cases of addiction and sexual abuse, where everyone pretends it’s not happening
- lack of empathy
- lack of equality and fairness
- mixed messages — one way of behaving at home, another for the outside world
- unclear boundaries about roles within the family, and over what is acceptable and what is not
- violence — fighting between family members
