It is slightly different if they're related. Most people here, though, wouldn't be working a game in which a nephew or cousin is playing due to conflict of interest. I realize it's sometimes different in rec leagues.
That said, I still wouldn't hold down a kid even if he's trying to fight. Being related might mitigate legal issues, but it doesn't mitigate the risk you're putting that particular kid into. Besides that, if he does get sucker punched while being held down by his uncle the ref, Christmas will be that much more unpleasant for decades to come.
