Regard for one of the family (8)
I believe the answer is:
relation
This clue is a double definition.
'regard' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)
'one of the family' is the second definition.
(I've seen this before)
'for' is the link.
(Other definitions for relation that I've seen before include "Telling" , "Story-telling - member of the family" , "One of the family" , "Kinship; narrative" , "Oriental kind of family connection" .)
