'row' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'trim gangster with extreme problem cites convoluted family' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
an anagram of 'cites' is 'estic' which is present in the answer.
The remaining letters 'dom' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't understand.
This may be the basis of clue (or it may be nonsense).

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for domestic that I've seen before include "Relating to home or private affairs" , "of family affairs" , "Daily" , "row between couple at home" , "Household servant" .)
