Ordinary people conceive family as disinterested love, not power structure

Evidence

While it is true that in the past two decades the idea of the family-as-articulated-power-structure has been much written about, such a conception is certainly foreign to the overwhelming bulk of mankind. Rather, the family has traditionally been conceived as the domain of disinterested love and solidarity. — Benedict Anderson, Imagined Communities, 547
