Jewish tradition tells us that it is our achrayut, our responsibility, to watch out for one another. We use the phrase, "kol Yisrael arevim zeh bazeh" ("All of Israel is responsible for one another") to remember this (Shavuot 39a).
How are you responsible for other members of your family? If you are online, list a member of your family and one way you are responsible for him/her in the chatbox.
