PUTTING AN S

WHAT IS THE CORRECT GRAMMAR..

IS IT RIGHT TO SAY " A FAMILY TREAT ME AS A BROTHER" ? OR SHOULD I HAVE TO PUT S IN THE WORD TREAT?
  

Top answer

First, never post in all-capital letters, because it is rude: it means shouting. Your sentence should read like this: Their/His/That family treats me like a brother. You may also use 'treat', but 'treats' is more common when a family acts as one unit.
