VERY small communities. Even in the case of a simple 2 child family, there are a lot issues coming forth. Even between husband and wife, there are issues where one will do something to get on top of the other (Not necessarily in bed only).

That is why it needed to be authoritarian other things would fall apart very quickly. The theory is nice though. We each bring an ingredient and by nightfall, we have a wonderful stew. Soon someone gets the smart idea to hold back a little and then somebody follows. Pretty soon, you won't even have the pot of hot water.
