What is the difference between friendship and 'kinship' (blood relatives)?

I see relatives 3 or 4 times a year but sometimes they feel closer than most friends. Especially aunts, uncles and grandparents. I think that's because I know they will like me. Our strong relationship as a family relaxes me and helps to believe them. But at the same time, I know almost nothing about my relatives while I know what my friends ate yesterday. So I know my friends better but I can believe my relatives much easily.

Hello, Seong Eun!
Thanks for writing your homework.
I like how you mentioned how friendship and family relationships are different but equally important. 
Have a great day! See you on our next class. ^^
