A quick definition of family meeting:

Family Meeting: A family meeting is when all the members of a family come together to talk about important things. Sometimes, a family meeting is called by a court to help decide what is best for a child or an adult who needs help. Other times, a family meeting is held to help a young person make decisions about their life and their belongings. It's like a big family discussion where everyone gets to share their thoughts and ideas.

A more thorough explanation:

A family meeting is a gathering of family members to discuss important matters that affect the family as a whole. In the past, it was also used in civil law for two purposes:

  1. As an advisory council to help the court in family-law matters, such as arranging guardianship for a minor or an incompetent adult. If the person had no relatives, the court could summon friends of the person instead.
  2. As a council of relatives of a minor to advise the minor in their affairs and help administer their property.

For example, a family meeting could be called to discuss a family member's health, financial situation, or to plan a family vacation. In the past, a family meeting could also be called to help a minor make important decisions or manage their property.

Overall, a family meeting is a way for family members to come together, communicate openly, and make decisions that benefit the family as a whole.

There’s someone I found on here with the username threeoutchange and if my understanding is correct that’s a reference to the debut album by a pretty cool 90s-00s Japanese band called Supercar. I geeked a little
