What is funny about families is that a lot of them are dysfunctional.

As one anecdote goes:

Patient says that he recently made it up with his mother.

Psychiatrist ask what happened.

"She died" answers patient.

And we all know a lot of those families who meet once a year because of the need. And companies then want to call themselves "families".
