Consider if buying every Steam game for gifting makes sense.

It's my siblings' kids. Can I still do that? Since I got my house LAN, I can share it over the internet to his or anyone else's home. I'm checking this link: http://store.steampowered.com/promotion/familysharing
I successfully configured family sharing with one of your friends, so you should be able to do the same.
You're noticing a clear distinction between the "family and friends" key and Steam Gift games. It's important to understand how each works.
two players are involved—one owns Counter-Strike, the other doesn’t. If person 2 wants to play Counter-Strike while person 1 isn’t, person 2 can still play if they’re already playing it. Person 1 can’t join unless both are using the game together. Sharing a single copy is similar to having one disk for everyone at once; only one person can play at a time. If both wanted to play simultaneously, they’d need the same game ownership.
