[quote=Anonymous]Extra curriculars More expensive toys Bigger vacation costs if you want to do vacations that help expose kids to different things More expensive clothes After care Camps They start to have social costs like going out to movies with friends. Expensive hobbies like skiing if that's something they are interested in. But that's all in the context of your budget and parenting philosophy. My son is 8 and at a small private school, so I've got tuition ($13,000). And I need full time care in summers because I work. He still doesn't cost me the $20,000 a year he did in infant day care. But it's coming soon. So.... $7,000 a year for everything else. [/quote]
