Family Member Includes College Student?

Our insured's son went away to college and when he wanted to rent a vehicle, the rental company would only rent to him if his parents' auto policy would cover him. Does the son qualify as a family member? We know he is related to the parents by blood, of course, but he is not residing in the household while away at college. Would the auto policy of the parents provide liability and physical damage coverage for the son in this instance?
