In this story of a dysfunctional family all the stereotypes of a Japanese unit come to the fore when the wife works the kitchen, the husband is focused on his work and the son does not have a full-time position and all do not really interact. When a family does not communicate the family does not understand each other and the slippery slope rolls downward.
