[quote=Anonymous]Honestly before I had kids, thousands of dollars is a LOT of money to spend in a month, even though we could definitely afforded it back then, we were always good savers. Having children changed that a little for us, as long as you can comfortably afford it (whatever "it" is), I would try to get used to spend a little more money.

We had premature twins, at first I thought all the baby stuff were expensive, special formulas, twin pillows....ha that was naive.... then later on I thought $120 per hour private speech therapy was crazy, as soon as I got over the price, my girls flourished (much better and easier scheduling than insurance covered facilities).... then my husband had to talk me into sending them to our top choice preschool, I thought the price was insane ($50k a year for both, more than both of our cars), but that turned out to be one of the best decisions we have ever made. I am not saying raising children necessarily has to cost a lot of money, it absolutely does not, but just in case you were like me, can comfortably afford some things but uncomfortable to actually spend the money, get OVER it. As long as you still have comfortable savings, what’s all this money for if not to spend on our children and family?[/quote]
