It also really depends on what you mean about family. A lot

I guess i was using the term "family" VERY
loosely.....as in a group (or 1,
i guess) of relatives that cares for you and helps establish
your sense of
worth, as well as a since of discipline, right vs. wrong,
etc.
Doesn't have to be a nuclear fam.....could be a grandmother,
cousin, uncle,
etc. But SOMEONE who loves you unconditionally and helps you
grow into a
responsible adult.
