- A married, civil partnership, or cohabiting couple, with or without children,
- A lone parent with children,
- A married, civil partnership, or cohabiting couple with grandchildren but with no children present from the intervening generation,
- Or a single grandparent with grandchildren but no children present from the intervening generation.
Children in couple families need not belong to both members of the couple.
For single or couple grandparents with grandchildren present, the children of the grandparents may also be present if they are not the parents or grandparents of the youngest generation present.
