What a brilliant moment with my beloved family. Greetings to you all. I'm excited to participate in this knowledgeable contest. A very big thanks to the Steemit kids and parents community and to @uzma4882 for organizing this wonderful contest. When we say family, it's a group of people who share lovely memories, care for each other, are always there for you in any situation at all in life, and expect your attention, support, and love and show it by turning back the favor. It's also related by blood. ![IMG_20230725_161952_424.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmNaCYigcdavBQ6q8gm5zVZkKiRqLcrjWxcNAoQZuTceSP/IMG_20230725_161952_424.jpg) Importance of Family When I said family, I meant they play a very vital role in sharing memories, love, identity, support, emotional support, providing a sense of belonging, financial support, well-being, education, personal growth, and development. Families also provide a safe and secure environment, protecting their members. Reason We Should Know About How To Defend Our Family And Help Them One of the reasons is protecting them from harm, defending them physically, spiritually, academically, and financially, and no matter the situation they find themselves in, you always make sure to be there, well-being, and developing a safety plan. Reason Family Should Always Have Their Back Having acceptance and encouragement, we make them feel better. Unconditional love, emotional support providing a sense of belonging, financial support, and being a brother's keeper. ![IMG_20240424_173351_125.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmR9D1rxDAYcgwMSbFFz4sy6wyUKVBWrxcovamDkzH4Kd7/IMG_20240424_173351_125.jpg) Things That Are Expected From Family Things that are expected are emotional support, personal growth and development, attention, building strong relationships, helping in daily tasks, respect, communication, social support, encouragement, acceptance, and creating lasting memories. |![IMG_20240307_184047_423.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmZdHxHkHsU3yTobWx5wSi2A6dWq9WBb2HfvGsGM9foW7k/IMG_20240307_184047_423.jpg)|![IMG_20240307_184052_268.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmVoJnkMVsFZoSgfyXKvgSvgTBJ5ftAF2WEsPm7o51Bc2M/IMG_20240307_184052_268.jpg)| |---|---| Whenever I see brothers fighting, it makes me wonder what is causing the fight among siblings, not knowing that the love is not strong enough, all because of how they were raised by their parents. Family is a beautiful thing I don't joke about. I can joke with material things and food, but I can't joke with family and friends. One thing you should know is that some families can betray, but blood is stronger than water. |![IMG_20231001_095530_911.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmcSAWTPe6smWTRt4ppv7vUcof5Ye45LuNzXTkVQLvhndH/IMG_20231001_095530_911.jpg)|![PXL_20231020_134633313.PORTRAIT_1.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmPCdLQZP3Xw1ZxKi7eWvJ8r39up5wycCmDJbSa5SEn2zA/PXL_20231020_134633313.PORTRAIT_1.jpg)| |---|---| I likely invite @ngoenyi @Richy20 @kidi40.
