married or in a relationship- a man and a woman. Also 1 or more kids

I think family are the people you want to socialize with. Those are the people that matter, your parents may have born you, but if they don't treat you with respect, they shouldn't expect you to respect them. And as to familialism, I think that's no way to go. The government should be there for it's people. If you pay taxes for 20 years and then you loose everything, for whatever reason, you should get some help from the government back.

I don't think it warrants a definition. Familial units are groups of people who care for each other and feel safe together. It's completely evolved overtime and shouldn't be restricted to some arbitrary definition.

A man and a woman in a relationship or marriage with 1 or more kids
@9PP6GZCSocial Democrats6mos6MO
The people related to me. It's never really evolved
2 people and 1 or more child that’s all that’s needed to qualify as a family marriage is just the governments excuse to get their hands in your pockets.

Family is not given but chosen. Family is whoever is there for you when you need them and you are there for them when they need you.
@9KRDLFY 10mos10MO
Family is family, shared by blood or in some cases, adopted children become your family too.
Married people who may also have children together.

A family is simply a stable unit for cohabiting or parenting.
@9K486Y810mos10MO
My family is my family, everyone who is related and some people who are not, but that does not mean I have responsibility for the welfare of my whole family, just my immediate family. I will always help where I can but the help will never come at the cost of niglect to my immediate family. Parents, brothers, sisters, partner, children and eventually grandchildren are my immediate family.

Yes. It has evolved over time for me. I no longer believe family is based on a martial status. Family is who you spend time with and who you would stand up for. I would not say that family is based on marriage.
Yes it is no longer nuclear family is anyone who loves and supports you

The definition of family is defiently in need of expansion from the Constitutional definition.
@9K49HPHSocial Democrats 10mos10MO
A family is a group of people who are associated together either through blood relations or legal bounds.
@9K35Y6Q10mos10MO
You can't chose your family, but you're family isn't conventional. It's who cares for you
