Considering Peter keeps calling Tony and Steve Mom and Dad fairly often in the comics, I can see why people might be amused by the concept of a superfamily.

I think Superfamily could actually be fun if it didn't change so much of the given canon that wouldn't need changing. Most of those fics are baby!Peter, Tony and Steve living in a small white-picket fence suburbia nightmare, wtf. And the few fics that still have the normal dynamics, has them living in the Avengers Mansion or Stark Tower, only with Peter as the (adoptive) son and Tony and Steve as the super-protective parents who think it's a shit idea to have their son dating Wade, well. All of those I've read are horribly written.

There are a few fics (not really the superfamily trope, though) that has them acting as a family and not OOC. Usually it's that something happens to Aunt May (illness, attack, accident, etc) and she loses custody of Peter when he's already Spiderman and 16-ish. They're not really his parents, though, just his legal guardians (Tony usually pretends to have taken a shine to Peter at a science fair and be trying to recruit him. Steve signs the paperwork because Tony's a friend but no one trusts him with a kid, and voila! Secret identities saved!) Most of those are actually pretty well written, but they're rare, older, and I've forgotten where I even read them.

As for the kidfic... It's a guilty pleasure, similar to the discussion of Harlequins and other romance novels a few days ago. Sometimes I just want cavity inducing kidfic, and superfamily is right there, with its own label and everything! I'm aware it's OOC and trite and such, but sometimes that's just what I want.
