what does "raise your family" mean?
because "raise"can mean bring up, it also have another sense of "set up", so I am afraid of confusing others by using this phrase when I use it,
1.you need to bring home the bacon,put food on the table and the clothes on kids back...
2.you got married and set up a new family..
which one is right? or both are right?
Thanks in advance.

It means: bring up.
We don't say: set up a family. That's weird.

The first one sounds more appropriate, since raise has a meaning of both setting up and maintaining, the second one also seems partly right.

Wow. It is a little bit confusing the way you ask it but,
Raise a family = bring up a family = support a family through many years = nurture a family
Your other expressions are good ones though!
