Hi Tiago,
I don't have a suggestion, but a question. Do you have a variable that
identifies the membership of each individual? I mean, is there an "ID
variable" for family?
In case you haven't read them, here are some useful sites:

http://www.ats.ucla.edu/stat/stata/faq/clusterreg.htm
http://www.stata.com/support/faqs/stat/svyml.html
Good luck!
Francisco
