Dictionary.com defines "family" as a basic social unit consisting of parents and their children, considered as a group, whether dwelling together or not. #TWDUniverse defines family much closer to what it is in the real world: people who love (while barely tolerating) each other and would sacrifice themselves for the other if they had to.
