Family wage

Family wage is when one parent in a family earns enough money to support the household. This means that they can support themselves and any children they have, and they don't need a second income from the other parent or from anyone else in the family. This kind of income is especially helpful for families with kids who might need extra care or attention. It makes life easier for the family and can help them cover the costs of food, shelter, clothing, and other necessities.
