Title:	Someone who is very different in the family. (usually a negative term)
Answer:	BLACK SHEEP

Explanation:	A black sheep is someone in a family who is very different than the rest. It isn't always a negative term, but can be perceived as a negative. In my own family, I don't think any of us were considered black sheep, but we were all eccentric -- like our parents, but in different ways.
