Family Collection Concept

Difference between Family and Group:
Group is a profile which can be modified by group members. Group members can update items in a group profile.
For example, Britney Spears is a group profile, any members joined this group can update items (with some restrictions for members who is not the group owner).

Family itself is not a profile, it just a logical collection of profiles of family members with following features/functionalities:

1. Family collection is a center place for the family collection owner to update profiles of each family members without login to each profile. It is useful for parents to manage profiles of each child.
2. Any user can create a Family collection, then add other users (such as sons, daughters, brothers etc) profile to the family collection (need to be accepted). The user who create the family is the owner of the family collection.
3. All members can see any other members' profile.
4. Easy share items among family member profiles, any photos/videos tagged with another family member will be automatically added to that members counterpart period.
(Considering to differentiate user names used in tag)
5. automatically, dynamically generate family profile (it is a virtual profile, no backend data) with photos/videos with more than two members tagged.
