You know, the differences between family structures are crazy. there are so many different kinds of families. and i dont mean the number of people, or how you are related. I mean the system, the governmental side of the family.
There are the families that are open and they will be exactly who they are around you. there is this inner sense of friendship and the ability to trust each other. This is like the ideals that America bases itself off of. The Democracy of families.
Then, there are families that try to look perfect. they have this idea that if they become the i love lucy "honey! i am home" kind of family, then all the rest of the pieces will fall into place. This is more like Communism. Everyone has a certain spot in this certain family. and protocol must be attained.
Then there are families that the parents want to be kids so there is no goverment. its easier actually to say that its an anarchy of sorts. where the children get to do whatever they want b/c they are "just kids" no matter how old they become.
It is crazy to see the differences in the families. It is easy to say some work better than others but maybe it depends on what the family is going for.
If the parents want to have a strong inner relationship within the family, Democracy works.
If the parents want to have a certain image and control, Communism works.
If the parents want life long friends, Anarchy works.
maybe this thought process can be applied to the government as well. Maybe thats a talk for another day.
