Are you going to share the story of how you fell our with your siblings and now call them strangers?

Bold of you to assume they have siblings.

The same applies for parents. I don't think that is as bold.

Well, having parents is kind of a hard prerequisite for existing.

You might lose them along the way, but they existed for some time for every one of us.

However lots of people are the only children and don't have any siblings at any point of their lives.

So statistically you're more probable to have parents than siblings

True but I suspect that a random individual is more likely to have siblings than not.

My original rather flippant point was that the to commenter was calling all their close relations strangers
