Now his family are telling him he should divorce me.

Her family were concerned and told them to end things so they kept their relationship secret.

I can't tell these children that their families are all telling them stories.

His family has told friends they believe he was killed.

Are there any particular stories that your family tells now?

My friends and family have told me to leave so many times.

My family didn't tell me until after the exams were over.

The family themselves, however, would not tell their own story until much later in life.

Friends and family back in the city told me it was "really something."

Without being able to come to a decision, the family started to leave and told her to put the dog back.
