The Chinese families bit is most likely a reference to widespread, problematic family dynamics stemming from shared social pressures in China. Just in living memory, a household might have gone through: a revolution, the cultural revolution, famine, rapid urbanization, one child policy, economic booms, economic bubbles, etc...
That will leave any family pretty fucked up, though it may not be universally bad (hence, only the middle of the horse). In the future, we'll probably see similar echoes of trauma from the USA's current historical flashpoint.
