What are some similar things about the Tuck and Foster family in Tuck Everlasting?

I think that the biggest similarity between the two families is their care for Winnie Foster.  Both the Fosters and the Tucks clearly care for her and her safety.  Mr. and Mrs. Foster are not portrayed in a very positive light.  They are very over protective parents that do not let Winnie do much wandering on her own.  It's a bit oppressive, but it has to be argued that they clearly care for her safety...

Another similarity is a very surface level, literal similarity.  The Foster and Tuck families are families with a still together mother and father. That's a big deal to me as a reader, because I don't see that too often in newer teen literature.  Take The Hunger Games or Twilight series for example.  Bella's parents are divorced, and Katniss's mother is a single mother.
