What decisions can be made about me at the Family Court?

This depends on each family. The Family Courts' main job is to keep everyone safe. The Court also wants kids to be with family members who can take good care of them. Decisions could be about where kids live or when they spend time with other people in their family.

Sometimes the Family Court makes decisions for a short time while figuring out what is best in the long run. This means that things might change a few times.
