The Vanier Institute of the Family takes a broader definition of family which includes extended family members, like Eugenia's sister and brother-in-law, who may take on parental roles. It also recognizes that family structures can vary and evolve over time. This definition would likely best reflect Eugenia's own understanding and experience of "family."
