Let\u2019s begin our study of collocations by learning some common expressions about
the family. Your parents and siblings (brothers and sisters) are your immediate
family \u2013 and your extended family includes all your relatives \u2013 uncles, cousins,
great-aunts, etc.
You can use a family tree to diagram the relationships among your family
members. A person who is related to you by a long series of connections can be
called a distant relative.
If you\u2019re lucky, you have a loving family or a close-knit family \u2013 these expressions
refer to a family that has good relationships, where everyone loves each other and
helps each other. If you were raised in a loving family, then you probably had a
carefree childhood \u2013 that means you had nothing to worry about when you were
young.
On the other hand, a family in which the relationships are bad or unhealthy can be
called a dysfunctional family. If the children experience abuse, poverty, or
problems with the law, we can say they had a troubled childhood.<\/p>

Perhaps the parents went through a bitter divorce \u2013 that means a separation in
which there were bad\/angry feelings between the husband and wife. It\u2019s also
possible to have a messy divorce, with a prolonged legal battle involving lots of
conflicts about the separation of the former couple\u2019s assets (money and
possessions). The decisions about the separation of assets are made in the divorce
settlement. A family in which there are divorces or separations is sometimes called
a broken home.
Sometimes the mother and father fight over custody of the children \u2013 that refers to
who has the primary responsibility of caring for the kids. A judge can grant joint
custody \u2013 that means the ex-husband and ex-wife share the responsibility \u2013 or sole
custody to only one parent. For example, a judge might award sole custody to the
mother, and the father has to pay child support \u2013 regular payments to help with
expenses for the kids.
If it was a mutual divorce\/separation \u2013 that means the ex-husband and ex-wife
agreed to separate without fighting \u2013 then they will probably stay on good terms
with each other (meaning to have a polite relationship without conflicts).<\/p>

If a woman gets pregnant without being married or in a relationship, then she will
become a single mother. Some women in this situation choose to have an
abortion, and others prefer to give the baby up for adoption. The time when the
baby is planned to arrive is called the due date \u2013 you can also say the baby is due in
mid-October, for example.
After the woman has the baby (or gives birth to the baby), the baby is given to the
adoptive parents, who will raise the child or bring up the child as if it was their
own. Sometimes, when the adopted child is older, he or she tries to find their birth
mother (biological mother).<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
