Weischeider (1981) identified some roles in dysfunctional families, such as the enabler, the lost child, the mascot, the hero and the scapegoat. This last role describes the family members that are considered the "trouble makers" of the family because they get attention easily, but in a negative way -through hostile and defiant behavior. This traits lead scapehoated children or teenagers, like Grace, to assume their role as rule-breakers, underachievers or rebels within the family.
