Breadwinning family policy supports the family as a viable economic unit, either by maintaining a certain minimal family income or by providing for the care of children while parents work.
Nurturing and care giving family policy focuses on the internal life of the family by promoting positive family functioning and the development and well-being of individual family members.

I was so gripped with the haunting intensity of the experience that I was afraid to place a long-distance phone call (for fear that the relative would trip over the telephone cord or something and make the experience a self-fulfilling prediction). In fact, the relative is alive and well, and whatever psychological roots the experience may have,You are not allowed to view links.
