You probably wouldnt kick your family out but the person you invited into your house probably wouldnt be allowed back.

I would. I've already disowned half of them. A couple more wouldn't hurt.

Granted, circumstances matter - there's a difference between a child doing something and an adult, there's a difference between a one-time mistake versus a pattern of behavior, and there's a difference between doing something accidentally and doing something maliciously.

There's also a difference between damaging something you didn't realize actually had value (especially if it was sentimental as opposed to financial), and breaking something you've been explicitly told has great value and the person who owns it would be very, very upset if they lost it.

But if the sole determining factor is whether or not they're related to me by blood or not, I don't give a single shit. I have plenty of assholes in my family who can straight fuck off.

You would evict your family even if theyre a dependent?

My parents threw my brother out when he was 16 for being a fuck-up. He had to go live with his grandmother in the middle of nowhere. Who was kind of a shitty person, so his life definitely took a turn for the worse because of it. He was kind of pissy about it for years, too.

Realistically, the only "dependents" you can't get rid of in some way are kids (at least not your own) who are took young to be emancipated or have nowhere else to go. And maybe older family (like parents) who get too old to take care of themselves (but that's what nursing homes are for). Other adult family members who are only "dependent" because they can't be bothered to support themselves in some way but still wind up being fuck ups can pretty much fuck right off.

Again, it depends on severity and a bunch of other factors, but if something happens where I'd throw a friend out and never let them come back, I'd be just as inclined to do the same for family as well. If anything, I hold most of my friends in higher regard than I do most of my family.
