use "template transclusion", like this:
{{||FamilyDropdown}}
This will transclude the content from FamilyDropdown, but use the current
tiddler for the data context. Thus, field references in FamilyDropdown
will modify values in the current tiddler. Q.E.D.
Note: the full transclusion syntax is: {{ContextTiddler||TemplateTiddler}},
where ContextTiddler is the source of the data, and TemplateTiddler is the
source for the output format. In the above example, {{||FamilyDropdown}},
omitting the ContextTiddler implies the current tiddler by default.
