Hi Bob! All of your ideas are great ones, but I especially like the one below. I too often forget to use it as well and many times it is imperative that I do.
Take the family where the parents live in a home, then several of the children, along with their spouses, live in the same home. Then the children of those children live in the same home. How do I know which parent is Mary's, the grandchild of said head of the household? I don't. At least, not yet. For this reason I have a "Grandchild" relationship set to use until I'm sure whose parents the grandchildren actually are. Guardian is all well and good (and useful for outside family relationships), but the grandparents really aren't the guardians if the parents are living there too.
