Rainbow Peace

Is there an international sign for FAMILY?

I want to know if there is a sign that represents or means FAMILY…
Like the heart = LOVE;
thumbs up = GOOD JOB;
index and middle finger pointing up = PEACE;
rainbow = GAY;
pink ribbon = BREAST CANCER;
circle with diagonal line across= NO or DO NOT
ETC.
Is there one for FAMILY???

There doesn’t appear to be one, but be careful with some of the rest too!;
The thumbs up does represent ‘ok’ for most parts of the world but is an obsene gesture in Iran, Afghanistan, Nigeria and parts of Italy and Greece, conveyng ‘sit on my phallus, a**hole’. It would be unwise to use it to hitch hike in these places.

Also the index and middle finger pointing up is also tricky; if done with the back of the hand toward someone in the UK, it means ‘up your bum’ and originates when the English and French were continually at war and when bows were used before guns. The French would cut off an English bowmans index and middle finger preventing him from weilding a bow if he was caught. The English would show the fingers (with the back of the hand facing them) as a taunt that the French hadn’t caught them.
With the palm facing outwards it is considered to mean ‘peace’ in the UK.
