nuclear family: parents and their children, living together
without other family members
(immediate family: your parents and siblings)

step-parents: someone who married one of your (biological)
parents but who isn't your other biological parent

half-siblings: siblings that share only one parent with you
step(brother/sister): the son or daughter of your step-
parent (but they don't share the other parent with you)

extended family: family including cousins, aunts, uncles,
grandparents, etc. (family beyond your immediate family)

spread out: move far away from each other

relative: someone related to you by blood or marriage
(blood relatives are related by blood rather than marriage)

godparents: older people who form a close relationship with
you and (traditionally) would take care of you if your own
parents died (this person plays a role in your infant
baptism and perhaps later religious education)

father/mother figure: an older adult who might play a
similar role to your father or mother
---
false dichotomy: when the two options given to you aren't
really different, or aren't the only two options available
