[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why does the second child mean you need a second car(versus just trading in your car for a larger one?) I’m confused.[/quote] It is admittedly much of a luxury, but the general idea is that having a second car would avoid a parent being stuck. For example, if we split up for one of the many pediatric appointments of a newborn, the other parent isn't without a car in an emergent situation.[/quote] Where do you live that this is a concern? Are you in a rural area? The frequent newborn appointments only last a few months. We have three kids and one car and it’s fine- we can’t give rides to people so might make the swap to a minivan soon but it has worked for a few years. [/quote] Close in suburbs. We can walk to the metro and shops, but it's not close quite easy like the city. Long term, we sort of imagined that we would need two cars because of different activities for the kids or whatever.[/quote]
