I think people are just people and blood relationships aren’t the be all and end all. If I knew my family hated me, I’d just distance myself because if someone hates (or is indifferent to me) it generally means if they start being nice, they want to use me, in my experience.
It’s still up to everyone to decide how to interact with their family for themselves, of course, but there’s nothing wrong with forming new “tribes” outside a family if one feels the need to do that.
