In most countries "family" are much bigger than the blood family. My big daughter lived far away with her aunt - which was not "her aunt". And do now still take care of this nice old lady, who was a distant aunt from a close friend. They are family, and do not care about DNA. And also - my "big daughter" had other parents, before she adopted me for the job!
