[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP I'm curious to know myself. We are one income and will have one in private this year. Our oldest is in public but struggling and we plan to move her to private for HS the next year.  I will go back to work to help pay. My potential income isn't all that high but enough to push us over 200. Yet out of that income we will be adding the expense of childcare for our youngest. And we'll be in a higher  tax bracket. DH has figured out we will probably only come out 10,000 ahead after all is said and done. He feels that the higher income will mean no FA. However some schools will only give FA with 2 parents working. Feel like we are stuck because we can't qualify without the job but we won't qualify with it. And both of the kids need private. It's not a preference. Public schools have been a poor fit and there are no charters. [/quote]

How do you know both need private if your youngest is not yet school aged?  Or by childcare do you mean after or before care?[/quote]
