Family Stadium And Spin-offs
Family (from la, familia) is a group of people related either by consanguinity (by recognized birth) or affinity (by marriage or other relationship).

Ideally, families offer predictability, structure, and safety as members mature and learn to participate in the community.

The term was coined by Canadian media theorist Marshall McLuhan in his books '' The Gutenberg Galaxy: The Making of Typographic Man'' (1962) and ''Understanding Media'' (1964).
