Relationship Tags
Set up tags for relationships between profiles.
By assigning relationships between profiles, you can see how people are connected.
First, create the tags you want to use for relationships, then add the appropriate relationships to profiles. You can always change the tags or add new ones as needed. Note that both individuals must have a profile in order to add a relationship.
Here's an example situation where relationship tags are useful: You track "Grandparent" and "Grandchild" using tags, where both the grandparent and child have a profile. You can quickly see a list of those tagged for an upcoming Grandparents' Day celebration.
