I have 8 siblings (I'm the oldest) and some of them aren't old enough for me to really type them. But of the family members I have been able to type, there's:

Me: INFP

Mom: ISTJ
Dad: INFJ
Twin brothers: INTJ & ISFP
Brother: ESTP
Sister: ESTJ
Brother: ISTP
Brother: ISTJ

Interestingly I think the sibling I get along with the best is my INTJ brother. ESTP has always been the black sheep of the family, and getting married in a couple weeks with a kid on the way (he's 18). ESTJ sister has also got herself into her share of trouble, but more because of a sense she has of needing to lead friends who end up dragging her down instead.

I clash with both my parents a lot for different reasons - with my dad it's usually politics and religion, with my mom it's about traditions and family things.

My family:

Me: INFP (though I can border on INTP at times)
Mom: ESTJ (though she and I are on the same page more than one would think)
Dad: INTP (what the test tells him, but I think he could be INFP)
Brother: ISTP (test said ESTJ but I don't believe it for a second)
Sister: ESFJ (the only one I'm really confident about)

Aunt 1 (my godmother): INFJ (She's that kind of person who does anything for me :p)
Aunt 2: ENFP (really strong Fi, though)

My family consists of all the ES types and me.

Mom: ESFJ
Dad: ESTJ
Sister: ESFP
Brother: ESTP

I don't know about other family members because they all live on the other side of our country.

I get on best with my little ESFP sister, though she can be very annoying sometimes. She's always looking for attention and gets pissed off when I want to spend some time by myself. I enjoy roleplaying with her and we've created our own world of imaginary things and ideas. It's very fun. I'm not very close to my ESTP brother, but we share information and trivia sometimes, as we both enjoy learning new things. My ESTJ father is very hard for me to get on with, mostly because he's very strict about everything and whenever I do something in a different way than he expects me to (even things like cutting vegetables on a plate instead of a cutting board), we end up arguing. And my ESFJ mom is very affectionate and giving, though she doesn't always understand me.

Me- INFP
Sister - ISFP - I relate to her the most in my family
Mom- ESFP - we get along fine
Dad- ESTJ- we argue a lot. He has no filter when he talks and doesn't consider other people's feelings much. But what I've read about ESTJ's that's typical.

Me: INFP - 9

Mother: ISFP <---narcissist
Father: not sure
Sister: ENFP
Brother: ESTJ (probably)

I get along pretty well with my sister, as long we we don't live too close to one another. My brother and I are fine in social situations but we don't really have an emotional connection. I've had to limit my emotional relationships with my mother and father for very different reasons.

Me - INFP
Younger sister - ISFJ
Older sister = ESTP
Oldest sister - ESFJ
older brother - ISTP
oldest brother - ENFJ (He's autistic too.)
Mom - XSFP
Dad - ENTP


Me and my dad (ENTP) argued and got along just as much.. He was always setting the stove on fire, falling asleep drunk when he had something cooking, looking for reasons to argue or talk crap and he was two faced.. We got into physical fights in the past and even had a domestic violence situation where he was arrested, over a thanksgiving turkey.. He was drunk though..

Me and my ISFJ sister like best friends...She is the dishwasher in the family.. She rarely complains.. She brings me tea and food when I'm unable to get it myself. She's very sweet..

I can't stand my ESTP sister because she's nothing but trouble and she's
annoying.. She's very two-faced, always in trouble with the law and is always looking for ways to get me and my younger sister out to party with her and her crackhead friends.

My ISTP brother is a sociopath, so I don't care much for hi.. Although he can't really help it.. He lacks empathy for others, he steals all the time and lies over and over again.

my ENFJ brother is very nice but sensitive.. He's autistic so go figure. I'm very protective over him.
He's extremely organized, loves to be on time and likes to be told how to do things in steps. He's an artist, he loves to draw but he uses a grid (J) vs me, I just use a blank sheet of paper. (P).

My mom is decent.. I love her. I can't tell if she's an introvert or an extrovert...and she's tested as an ISFP, ISF and ESFJ..She loves to cook and do things for others but she also doesn't mind others doing things for her. She's very passive.

My oldest ESFJ sister requires too much attention. She's annoying to have over, she never wants to be alone.. Alone time for her is like death. She's very self centered.. Yet considerate.. it's weird.
She also thinks her cooking is the bomb when she never fixed enough to eat..Bleh.

Me: INFP-T
Mum: ESFJ-T
Stepdad: ESFJ-A (He also got ESFP-A once)
Sister: ESTP-T (She used to be ESFP-A, not sure what made her change)

What do the -T and -A mean?

Mum: ISTP
Dad: ISTJ
Brother No.1: ESTP
Brother No.2: ISFP

I am the only 'N' :( Sad times. My family do make fun of me for being ditsy and dreamy. I get on best with my ISFP brother and my Dad. Don't talk to my ESTP brother a lot because he's always out and we are VERY different. I clash with my mum a lot, too. She's very impatient and intolerant, haha. My Dad, being the only 'J' is the backbone of the house, he does all the practical things and he's extremely organised and traditional, which can be irritating for me, but he never imposes his opinions on others though.
