Kinship

Kinship refers to social relationships within a society, established by blood (consanguinity), marriage (affinity), adoption, or fictive ties.
Consanguineal kinship is based on blood relations, including parent-child and sibling relationships.
Affinal kinship results from marriage, such as the relationship between husband and wife.
Fictive kinship describes chosen family relationships, including "blood brothers" or godparents.
Kin relationships can be categorized by degree:
- Primary kinship are direct relatives (parents, children)
- Secondary kinship are relatives of primary kin (grandparents, grandchildren)
- Tertiary kinship are relatives of secondary kin (great-grandparents, great-grandchildren)
