Hello everyone! Is it grammatically correct to use "will" in sentences like "I love my family, because they are fun and WILL support me in difficult times" in the present meaning that they "always support me", "they're always there for me"?
I would appreciate it!

You want to remain consistent in verb tense. You can fix this by saying I know they will support me.

Yes, it is correct and natural. Using "will" here shows that their support is a predictable trait, blending their current habit with future reliability.
For a purely present meaning like "they're always there for me," say "...they support me..." But "...WILL support me..." adds meaning with the idea of guaranteed future help, which is also perfectly fine.
