let’s say i have a huuuge family, let’s say i have my brother, who of course he’s family, then i have my mom and my dad, which are family too. then i have my grandma and granpa, they’re family too of course!! but then my grandma and grandpa have like 4 or 5 siblings, and those siblings have children, are those children part of my family or not?? let’s say those children have other children, are these still part of my family?? if you say yes then that means humanity is closely related and we’re all siblings, and if you say no, you are saying that my family is only mom, dad, brother, and grandparents… please help me figure this out, this could actually help us figure out the beginning of the universe & humanity itself!!!

If you turned up at their door randomly, and they’d feed you and let you sleep at their house for a night while you’re passing through, they’re family.
In some ways, friends are family too.
According to science were all related to one guy in Africa that lived thousands of years ago. We’re technically all one family.
Joke aside, being part of your family highly depends on how close to that person/group of persons you are. A friend can be more of a family member than your own brother or sister. Relatives you never met or even heard their name aren’t family.
Whoever you want to be part of your family.
There’s immediate family and extended family.
Yeah, we’re all related. That’s why we’re the same species.
so are you my sibling??
Siblings share the same parents, so probably not.
You’re most likely Xth cousins Y removed.
Personally, I consider family to be a social group more than a biological relationship. I have relatives that I’ve never met in my adult life that I don’t consider family. Conversely, there are people I consider family that were brought into my life through marriage, adoption, and close friendships.
