Intergenerational psychosocial transformation functions in two opposite directions, “intergenerational development” and “intergenerational fossilization”, and the main factor in this dynamic process is family dynamics and child-rearing styles. In psychosocial terms, every family can teach their children compassion, loyalty, honesty and strategies to effectively cope with traumatic experiences, on the other hand, they can traumatize and dissociate their children with their violence-oriented and unempathetic negative child-rearing styles, which they use as a punishment tool. Family psychopathologies show a negative relationship with "intergenerational development" and a positive relationship with "intergenerational transmission of trauma" and "intergenerational transfer of psychopathology", that is, the "intergenerational fossilization". In a wide space from normality to psychopathology, family dynamics and communication patterns are discussed in three categories: "normal family model", "dysfunctional family model" and "pathological family model". From past to present, traumatic experiences and negative child-rearing styles have been used in all nations of the world to both put oppression on and control individuals and societies. Because individuals and societies, by dissociating the people and masses they traumatized and psychopathologized, are able to control and manage more easily. In this context, intergenerational traumatic and psychopathological experiences are transmitted to the next generation at similar rates by people living in the same age in a revictimization cycle. The natural and guiding parenting style, developed by Ozturk, is structured both as a functional family model focused on psychosocial development and as a long-term prevention strategy against childhood traumas and closely related dissociative disorders and post-traumatic stress disorder. In this study, the "dysfunctional generation" defined by Ozturk and dysfunctional family models, dysfunctional family dynamics and dysfunctional communication patterns are discussed in detail.
