No, I'm saying that if your family member is more than three large steps away, you will need more skill than your "7 yards" standards.

Aaron, I'm sorry you read it that way. Please re-read with this thought in mind: several people have suggested that the only skill they can possibly imagine needing is being able to pull out a gun and hit a target a few steps away.
Go back to my original post:
if you personally would intervene to save the life of an innocent person (including a member of your own family) more than a few steps away from you, you should learn how to do that. Some people here got hung up on the "Would I save a stranger" aspect, and overlooked the fact that family members sometimes get more than a few steps from each other.
