Humans are social animals. As such, social relationships like having a family are very important for our lives. In fact, they are equally important for our health as exercise and diet are.
Our immediate family, for many, is the first relationship that we form. Typically, we experience the relationship from the moment we are born. As a result, this relationship often plays an important role in determining our perspective of the world.
So today we bring to you a fun fun ‘test’. There are no proper answers here at all. Your answer may, however, tell you a bit more about yourself, who knows.
The question is about your image of an ideal family. We assure you it is quite simple. So are you ready?
The Fake Family
Look at the image below:
There are 3 pictures, all of them showing a man, a woman, and a child – a typical family unit. Now the question is: Which one of them do you think is a fake family?
Now do not try to second guess your answer. Just choose the one that comes up first in your mind. That will give you the clearest outcome.
If you are done choosing, then scroll down below to know what your guess means.
Which One Was It?
Family No. 1:
If you chose the first image, then you are probably not very family-oriented, or at least as far as traditional families go.
For you, your friends are your actual family. You are happy when you get to help them. Moreover, you always try to add some goodness to the lives of everyone you know.
You may have grown up any solid father figures. As a result, you try to be the person that everyone can always depend on – similar to how your mother was there for you.
The family in this picture is clearly not the happiest example. However, they are still trying to be one. The father is seemingly indifferent to the child. The mother, meanwhile, stands as a caring barrier between the child and the father. You do not want any children to have a childhood like this, thus, you see this as a fake family.
Family No. 2:
This option means you are possibly extremely caring about your family. In fact, the family probably means the most to you.
You want lasting and stable relationships that are built on commitment and trust. For you, the needs of your family come first even if it means sacrificing yours.
You possibly saw how the people in this image do not exactly appear to be a family. All 3 of them seem to be doing their own thing, without caring for anyone else. In fact, the 3 might just be strangers who just happened to be walking side by side for a moment.
Since you are actually family-oriented, the fakeness of this family was clear to you from the get-go.
Family No. 3
Your childhood family may have been rocky at times.
Because of this, you find it difficult to trust people. You are anxious when you have to interact with anyone else, and it proves to be challenging. Moreover, you constantly worry about the future and end up overthinking things.
In this image, the people look like an ideal image of a happy and loving household. The parents are walking hand-in-hand while the father is holding the hand of the child.
Since your childhood family was dysfunctional, they may have altered your views about the world. One result can be your suspicion when it comes to healthy relationships. You do not believe that it can happen in reality. That may be why you chose this to be the fake family.
So, which one did you choose? And did you get to know anything about yourself from the answer? Let us know in the comments below! Also, make sure to share it with your friends and family. Maybe they can find something informative about it as well.
