- Personal life perspective on families
- Emphasizes individual family members and how they shape relationships
- Beyond ties of blood and marriage
- Gay and lesbian chosen families- supportive network, not related by blood
- Relationships with friends can be even closer than family
- Fictive kin eg mothers friends are seen as aunts
- Relationships with dead relatives- their memory still affects actions
- Relationships with pets- seen as family
- Donor conceived children
- Nordqvist and smart
- Different people see donor children in different ways
- Like family- genetics dont matter
- Genetics have an impact eg for lesbian parents there may be tension if the baby only shares dna with one mother
