I think that's when two people make a commitment to each other. And that doesn't have to be a traditional marriage or civil union, just an understanding between two people that their lives are merging.

How's that for unclear? :)

:) thanks, that is absolutely unclear.

I have found that some things don't have a clear beginning, you just know when you are there.

Hey clairewalsh and Steven -- I only just discovered this conversation now. That's a great question about what makes a family. I'll give it some thought and ask it on my blog in due course. - Lil
