The brat is going through the pics of a recent vacation
Brat: MA I don’t agree with the oxford dictionary meaning of Family
Me: Uff now what’s the problem with that? You think no end of yourself! How can you challenge something that’s been teaching us the language since ages!!
Brat (ignores my gyaan): MA the dictionary says that parents and siblings or blood relatives are family. But that’s not true.
Me: 
then who is?Brat: MA anyone with whom you feel a deep connect, with whom you feel secured, who loves you and whom you can love, and respect are family too. I think Ranjan uncle Romi aunty and didi are family too (family friends with whom we went for a vacation). 
now I feel happy, I like this new definition, it makes my family even bigger. Btw MA you are too bookish, think out of the box, book rules and definitions too have scope for improvement 
Me:
