question 103

Essay

The television show Full House told the story of a sports broadcaster and morning talk show host, Danny Tanner, and his three daughters, D. J., Stephanie, and Michelle Tanner. Before the series began, Danny Tanner's wife was killed by a drunk driver. Needing help to raise his three little girls, he turned to his rock musician brother-in-law, Jesse Katsopolis, and his comedian best friend, Joey Gladstone. The three men all lived in the same household and took care of the children, who referred to Jesse and Joey as Uncle Jesse and Uncle Joey. Does this qualify as a "family"? Justify your answer.
