[quote=Anonymous]For us we kept our nanny until the youngest was 7. Then there was: Private school: 40k+/kid/year Extra curricular after school: ~$400/mo/kid Sleep away camp 4 weeks (starting at 8yo):8k/kid/yr Ski school: 3k/yr/kid International travel: 4k/yr/kid Private piano: 3k/yr/kid One kid needed a tutor for a couple years: 2k/yr Yes, you can choose to do none of this or only after school care or summer day camps and it would be much cheaper. I would prefer to spend my money on my kids in healthy enriching ways. If I had less money, I would scrap international travel and sleepaway camp in a heart beat, opting for driving vacays to the mountains. I might even teach my kids to ski and scrap the tutor. I am perfectly capable of teaching my kids both of those things.[/quote]
