[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]$5k a month for TWO kids isn’t bad, honestly. [b]I have a friend who just had a baby in Manhattan and her daycare is 3600 a month.[/b] It always strikes me as strange that people think childcare shouldn’t cost much money, when your children are probably the most important, precious things in your life. [b]Why would you cheap out on that[/b]?[/quote] That’s the take-home pay for around a 60k salary. For 1 kid. How is the “average” person supposed to afford it?[/quote] The "average" person does not live in Manhattan. They live in queens or the bronx or NJ and they put their kids in an in-home daycare for less or have family help. [/quote]
