"Families of origin" is the most commonly recognized term for the families in which we were born and raised. Choice A ("tribes") is a possible term for some cultures, but it is not as universal as "families of origin." Choice C ("families of birth") could also work, but it is not as widely used as "families of origin." Choice D ("blended families") refers to a specific type of family structure that may include stepsiblings or half-siblings, but it does not encompass all families.
