You are correct, and I stand (sit) corrected. From dictionary.com:

1:
(a) A fundamental social group in society typically consisting of one or two parents and their children.

(b) Two or more people who share goals and values, have long-term commitments to one another, and reside usually in the same dwelling place.

I was thinking (a), whereas (b) obviously includes childless couples.

Have a great day.

was in the same place Homosexual marriage is today - something a special interest group was pushing for to make themselves feel better.

That said, the only languages that don't change are dead languages.
