I think it's pretty crass to keep labelling the family that way. It's only ONE PART of their lives, not the sole point of their beings.
Strange but true: when the house is finally quiet and everyone's asleep, you will suddenly find yourself wishing for some of that noise that you couldn't wait to get away from... whatever will I do when they're all grown up and moved out? (Insert true misting eyes and sniffles here...)
