Family allows you to share purchases but does not blend your photos. The option is a benefit for items that you purchase.
 
I'm surprised so many people want to do this. I take so many pictures on a daily basis that the rest of my family is really not interested in, though.

Shared albums are the best solution IMO. Just select batches of photos and share it to the family shared album.
 
My wife and I used to share a single iCloud account for the sake of being able to view each others pictures after we had our first child. Over time, Apple has made this method unusable so we now use Google Photos on both our iPhones (signed into a single account). Google Photos has unlimited storage of (downscaled, but fine for viewing on the phone) photos and videos and the phones automatically sync in the background throughout the day.
