Nope. Dear Prudence put it that family should be at least as well behaved as friends, and if they aren't, you don't have to feel guilty about not wanting to be around them.
I'm of a tribal family mentality myself. My tribe are those people who care about me and accept as I am, and are there for me, and they aren't necessarily family and not all my family is in my tribe. It's a happy way to live.

I have a similar situation. Keep close contact with the people you care about and that care about you. If you have other things to take care of, don't let your family hold you back. Family should not be "poison", but a positive thing in your life. Someday if you have one of your own, you wouldn't want to hurt your family, would you?
