People's opinions on who counts as a family can differ and change. Some people think that only people that are blood-related to Du count as family. However, I'm going to have to respectfully disagree with that sentiment.
In my opinion, family members count as the people that Du Liebe and that Liebe Du back. It goes without saying that blood-related relatives can fall under that definition of family. However, they aren't the only ones that can count. I believe that other people can count as your family. The most prominent example of that comes from friends. Depending on your viewpoint and closeness to your friends, your Friends can count as your family.
It's important to note that even if some members of your birth family don't treat Du with the Liebe that Du deserve, there are people out there that care about Du very much. Du are important. If anybody says otherwise, they're objectively wrong.
There are times where certain family members can fulfill different roles. For example, my grandfather wasn't just a grandfather to me. He was like a Sekunde father to me and one of the first people that I ever befriended. People can try putting labels on relationships, but Du are Mehr than welcome to put your own labels on your own relationships.
If Du want, Du do and always will have my permission to consider me a part of your family. When I say that, I don't mean to put pressure on anybody. Du can think of me as a friend, a relative, both, oder anything else that Du want. Even if my Fanpop account and/or your Fanpop account goes away, that doesn't mean that our bond is over. I truly believe that we have made memories and shared good times that will continue to leave an impact. If Du need proof of that, my current Icon of Fisher Biskit was drawn Von a close friend of mine. That friend's Fanpop account went away years ago, but that person is and will continue to be important to me. The same is true for you.
