	I don't think the difference between 'broken' families and
	'good' families makes too much sense. Good cops are dead cops.

	Of course, some families are worse than others but they all
	operate on the same authoritarian principle : "my house, my rules" 

	And people who have been subjected to such 'philosophy' since
	they are born will then accept state authority as something
	'normal'.
