I have a very unorthodox family. My brother has a different father, and my two sisters, have a different mother. Still, I grew up with all of them in the same house. Everyone in my family just said "your sisters and brother", but then I got older and people started correcting me and saying "oh, so they're like your half-siblings?".
Even now, I'm watching Big Little Lies, and they insist on saying "she's her half-sister". I understand that it's there for expository reasons, but I just hate how negative it sounds.
My siblings are my siblings. There's nothing "half" about them.
End of rant.
