You won't be able to do that (delete entire family) but with the help of a mentor you could together figure out what went wrong.. or you could do a seperate post here and tell us what profile you feel got messed up and where it should be or any situations like that!!
Mentors can be found here, just look through the list and pick one you think you would like to work with and contact them. Go here:
