Why do you think Greek myth uses the model of the human family to depict the gods?

I am stumped:(

I think it's helpful to understand the Greek gods as a sort of creative outflowing of the human--not divine--situation. Family is an important element of the human situation, so it's no surprise that the gods also live in families.
