[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]kids cost $20/per hour to exist ... add anything on top of just existing then you have to increase the rate (sports and sports equipment, art and art supplies, instruments and lessons and music, toy interests, electronics and apps, books, medical needs and medicines, special education needs (challenges or advanced), camps, food, clothing (double if you have a girl), shoes, teeth, eyes, psychiatric care, vacations, travel, friends' birthday parties, proms, cars and insurance, tutoring, application fees, books, apps, specialty child items for diet and grooming, summer entertainment like pools, bail, teacher gifts, school donation). Now multiply that by how long you expect they'll live in your house. Asking this question suggests that you took a lot for granted with your parents.[/quote] That number results in 174,720 / yr, which is obviously high. [/quote]
