So I like doing these types of threads...usually ends up being very insightful and puts things in your life into perspective.

Basically, what would you rate your family on a scale of 1 to 10? 10 being pretty much the best family you could've asked for, they help you out when you need it, they're supportive, fun, always around, never backstab blood and basically are at the core of your life. On the other end you have 1, these families are no good, they fight all the time, never have a good word for each other, never make time for each other, basically all the things that should NOT be associated with the word "family".

I'm up first. Myself personally, I come from a pretty small family, father's side is non-existent to me since my parents are divorced and I'm also an only child. Quite a few uncles and aunts but they're all pretty much for themselves and we never really do 'family' type things together. I have one uncle that (maybe 2) that I know I can depend on for anything so they fill the role of father figure. My family fights a lot though, mainly because of the grandparents that are always at it. We hardly have family get togethers and basically only see each other for a small while on weekends. I wish I had a big loving family that I see other people have but I guess you can't always get what you want.

I'd rate my family a 5, not total writeoffs but definitely far from the perfect family.

Can I get a poll with options 1-10 please, mods?
 
My family falls anywhere in between 1 and 10. I get along with everyone in my family, which is understandable as I'm the youngest. However go higher up and Gran doesn't talk to Grandad, Dad doesn't talk to Grandad, Grandad doesn't talk to uncle, Grandad has a long running feud with Aunty. In face Grandad just causes k@k with everyone.

But yeah whenever it comes to me, they're always willing to assist 24/7 so in that respect I give them a 10. They may fight and argue a lot, but I wouldn't want a different family.
 
9.5 for me. My family is awesome but we do have some issues now and then which is normal .
 
2
Thats cos of my brothers and my mom, but I dont like anything so gave it a 2.
 
Immediate family 10

Rest of the family 8.5 - That is just because there is some kind of feud between some of the family members (nothing hectic, but it can become unpleasant at times).
 
that's getting old now.

Well really, how can you rank your family? I haven't seen my father for nearly 4 years now and my mother for a year...doesn't mean I don't love them. Is it based on what they do for you or how well you get on with one another? I just can't do it.
