YES, indeed! they deserve more after ur own family. only restriction about zakaat money is that it can NOT be given to non muslims. for then there is something else called sadaqa which can be given to anyone regardless of race, religion, color, ethnicity. one can NOT expect any RETURN/FAVORS against money given as zakaat. there is a list of preferred recipients of zakaat.
do u think money can buy everything including happiness and health and wisdom?**
