[quote=Anonymous]If you are a parent that is determined to only buy what is necessary and lower your costs so you can do ther things with your money, and that is a completely legitimate choice, particularly if you stopped line items like retirement savings to cover the cost of daycar, the.ln the cost of your children will absolutely go down significantly.

There are, however, many things you can and will spend money on if your budget allows and they fit your families values.

We do not do regular foreign travel, but we spend a lot on kids' activities and great camps.  Those expenses are worth it to us.  Every family makes different choices and you will be faced with many more over the years as your children get older.

If you only want to pay for rec soccer, that is a legitimate choice.  But if your child has a passion in arts or sports and you choose not to support that with private lessons or travel teams or whatever you also should know that another family may legitimately make a different choice.[/quote]
