The first type of personality in every family is “the family drunk” The family drunk is common in all families because it’s always one person who cannot stop drinking and always starts drinking at the wrong time this occur often especially when their family is in town. Another reason why its so common in families because one of the family members life is not going so well and decides the only way to get threw problems is to drink alcohol . The more problems the family member has the more alcohol one drinks. The family drunk is the person who comes to every family gathering full of alcohol, eats all the food from everyone, and vomits all over the front lawn. In my family this describes my uncle Thomas perfectly. He comes to every family gathering when he is not in jail with his same dirty Old Navy shirt and torn blue jeans with alcohol all over his breath and bottles of vodka hidden away in his jacket pocket. As soon as everyone sees him they began to talk and stare at him because he cannot walk and no one can understand what he is saying .As he walks by each member of my family dancing and singing everyone starts to watch him because they do not want him to steal their wallet or purse to buy more alcohol for later. Some of members of my family mainly my aunt Betty and cousin Jessica immediately wants him to leave because he is being an negative influence on their children but my uncle doesn’t care he does it every year. The family drunk completely ruins the family gathering every time.

Another personality type in every family is the “know it all”. The “know it all” is common in every family because there is always one person who thinks they know more than rest and just can’t do not like accepting the fact that they are wrong. Another reason
its common in families is because every family have that one person who is just smarter than everyone else and likes to show that they are smarter by answering and knowing every question asked to them. The “know it all” is the person in the family that always have to know everything and always have to be right no matter what. This describes my cousin Jennifer in every aspect. In my family my cousin is the “know it all” because every time someone needs help with homework she always have to be the first one to answer it correctly. If someone if having a discussion with her she always have to be right and argues her case to appear that she is right
