[quote=Anonymous]It all depends on your lifestyle. I have three kids, so I never really saw a change in the daycare costs until the third hit elementary and the first hit high school - which was the same year. By that time, there were kids' activities, huge grocery bills (think four times when you were just a couple) when your kids hit teenage years, bigger cars, tutoring if anyone struggles in school, electronics, pool memberships, more expensive clothes, entertainment, better vacations, pets, etc. Thing is, other than food, none of this is a necessity. But they are the type of things many of us want to give our kids. If anything, I would say my life has become more expensive, because we didn't do classes or go out much when they were little.
