I disagree. I think that as in the real world, ethical wizards generally 
raise their children to be ethical, unethical wizards generally raise their 
children to be just like them, and every once in awhile a child rebels one 
way or the other (Mrs. Black ended up with Sirius; the Weasleys, it appears, 
ended up with Percy.)

It isn't always obvious.   Crouch Sr. would probably be horrified at the 
suggestion that Crouch Jr. was like him, but they both seem to hold the idea 
that The End Justifies The Means -- it just came out a little different in 
Junior than in Senior.
