As pointed out in this Image Pickin' thread, there's some confusion over what this trope's really about.

For starters, someone interpreted this as meaning "Actor playing all members of the family", which would, in term, mean that the trope's being misused (as evident in the existence of the "Anime and Manga", "Newspaper Comics" and "Western Animation" folders).

Another person pointed out that if this is not interpreted that way, it's no different than from Strong Family Resemblance. (Someone tried to depend this trope by saying that the this one's more broader than Strong Family Resemblance because the latter's about parent/child familiarity, but thinking about it, to me, that'll mean that the latter's this trope But More Specific, so there's still a potential problem, here.)

"Strong Family" is the bigger trouble. It can be discarded as superfluous, I'd say. I'll lock this one so the issue can be attached to the one needing the action. I tuned up this article a little to make it multi-media.
