What defines a family? In my opinion, a family does not have to include two adults and two children. It simply needs to be inclusive of at least one parent and one child. The idea of perfection is subjective and definitely not limited to one stereotype.

Society has generally deemed a perfect family to be completely intact unit. Parents are loving and children are smiling from ear to ear. Everyone has dinner together and there is absolutely no bad blood between any two family members. However desirable this may be, this picture perfect depiction of an extremely close-knit family can be deceiving on many levels.

Underneath the smiles and poses, sadness and hurt may be found. Facades are put up by children as a result of increasing material wealth and the absence of relationships which flourish with emotions such as love and happiness. Parents could mask themselves to appear the way they want others to see them. Once behind closed doors, no one but themselves know what goes on.

On the other hand, certain stereotyped imperfections can be perfect and these so-called dysfunctional families may be even more perfect that intact families. A typical dysfunctional family is usually assumed to have children with attitude problems or families consisting of only one parent. However, some of these decisions to be a single parent or the rebellious state of a child could be the reflection of something else other than mistakes that result in a broken family.

In actual fact, some stereotyped imperfections can be perfect or good decisions made for the better. Divorced parents need not be a bad thing for growing children. Some parents divorce because of abuse to a spouse or their children. A divorce in this case, would be perfect for the family as it is worse to endure unnecessary pain and raise children in an abusive environment.

Families consisting of single parents could be more efficient than families with both. Single parents may be more independent and could be held back by a lazy or irresponsible spouse which could also have an impact on children's personalities as they pick up traits and characteristics by observing their parents.

In conclusion, the perfect family is reliant on individual perspective as different experiences shape our opinions and decisions.
