[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]$600/month is exactly what I paid when my son was a baby/toddler (so that was 2005-2008).  He is 9 yrs old now.  This was a licensed in home daycare.  I rent a basement apartment is a nice area in Montgomery County.  Don't say it can't be done when people are doing it.[/quote]

I live next door to a licensed in-home daycare in an outside the beltway neighborhood that charges $1,400/month.  The next cheapest daycare for infants I have found is church run and costs $1,300/month.  Childcare costs have gone up a ton since 2008.  And a lot of us would like to have more than one child, so we could not make having a family work on your salary.

It's great that you've managed to make things work for you with that salary, but the average family that wants to own a home and have more than one child could not.[/quote]

Right.  She isn't planning on having a child on her salary!  She said she isn't having children yet.  I assume she will have a husband and not be a single mom at her age!!  Do you not get they will have two salaries which will be combined when and if they marry?  And that they should make more money over time?[/quote]

Seriously bff Internet defender, do you wear a cape and have super powers besides jumping to OP's defense with lots of exclamation marks?[/quote]
