Chris.
Children can suffer in different ways if they live in a dysfunctional family. This problem of dysfunction can be manifested in several ways. Basically it is the fruit of iniquity in the family that may be like a stream that goes back through the generations. I do not want to list specific iniquities here but I want to give positive Hope! If we have suffered from a dysfunctional family we can be healed and helped in positive ways by the Lord. If we are humble and open before Him, surely He will heal and help us.
