A nuclear family was a family with two parents.

In 2000, Jason Janeway responded to Shannon O'Donnel's sympathy about his mother's death by repeating his father's observation that "none of the great heroes grew up in a nuclear family. Hercules, Achilles, Odysseus. They all grew up with single parents." (VOY: "11:59")
