Family drama encompasses all the interpersonal conflicts within a family — siblings who don't speak, parents who disapprove of choices, in-laws who cause tension, inheritance fights, and holiday blowups. Every American family has some, and it's a staple topic of reality TV, Thanksgiving dinner conversations, and therapy sessions.

家庭大戏涵盖了一个家庭内部所有的人际冲突——不说话的兄弟姐妹、反对你选择的父母、制造紧张气氛的姻亲、遗产纷争和节日爆发的争吵。每个美国家庭都有一些这样的事，这也是真人秀节目、感恩节晚餐话题和心理咨询的常客。

Los dramas familiares abarcan todos los conflictos interpersonales dentro de una familia: hermanos que no se hablan, padres que desaprueban decisiones, suegros que crean tensión, peleas por herencias y explosiones en las fiestas. Todas las familias estadounidenses tienen alguno, y es un tema recurrente en los realities, las cenas de Acción de Gracias y las sesiones de terapia.

ファミリードラマとは、家族内のあらゆる人間関係の衝突を指す——口をきかない兄弟姉妹、子どもの選択を認めない親、波風を立てる義理の家族、遺産争い、祝日の大げんかなど。どのアメリカの家族にも何かしらあり、リアリティTV、感謝祭のディナーの話題、セラピーの定番テーマだ。

패밀리 드라마는 가족 내의 모든 대인 갈등을 아우른다 — 말을 안 하는 형제자매, 선택을 못마땅해하는 부모, 긴장을 유발하는 시댁/처가, 유산 다툼, 명절 폭발 등. 모든 미국 가정에는 어느 정도 있으며, 리얼리티 TV, 추수감사절 저녁 대화, 상담 세션의 단골 주제이다.
