  1. Care for a Family Member Step 1.jpg
    1
    Look after them. Whether it's your annoying little sister, rude big brother, or uncaring stepfather, dad or mom, they all love you deep down inside, so care for them. For example, help your little sister with homework you can help her with or help wash your stepdad's car.

    Give them meaningful gifts. For mother's day, maybe get her something identical to what her mother got her, or get your little sister something she has dreamt of having.
  3. Care for a Family Member Step 3.jpg
    3
    Do the little things.
    • Cook your mom breakfast in bed.
    • Take your dad to a football match.
    • Play with your sister (even if you don't really want to).
  4. Care for a Family Member Step 4.jpg
    4
    Be there for them. For example, if your little sister is being bullied, help her through it. Or if your dad is coming home drunk, help him sober up.
  5. 5
    Become close to them. Encourage them to tell them what the problem is, if who you are caring for does actually have a problem. If your father is an alcoholic then maybe you can talk about possible treatments and back him up.

    Protect them. If a mate turns on them and shouts and screams at them, protect them because you have known your family longer then you have known your mate.

Provide Details.
Please be as detailed as possible in your explanation. Don't worry about formatting! We'll take care of it. For example:

EditTips

  • You may have arguments now and then, but no family is complete without a few disagreements because nobody is perfect.
  • When you are given something, always thank them with a kiss or hug. It will make them feel warm and feel like you appreciated it.
  • Be grateful for the things they have given you.
  • Be there for them no matter what happens. Support them through thick and thin.

EditWarnings

  • Don't be a bully towards your family members, even if they're annoying. You should always show love and affection towards them.
  • Don't have an attitude towards them.
  • Always return a favor they do you.
  • Make them feel like you trust them and that you can run to them when you need it.
