Daycare costs alone discourage me from having children

[Field Marshall Bradley]

Family will sit your child in front of a television all day

Not my folks, or my girls folks..... must suck for others....

Yeah at best on this site though it's 50/50, in reality it's 30/70

In CAC America it's 70/30

Anyone else its 90/10 they aren't kicking kids out until like 35.

False bro, false.

Classic should a been featured

$225/week for me

Everytime I hit "send money" it hurts


Good thread OP, if this thread encourages only ONE person to make a better decision whether to bring a child into this world

200 a day? Its from 200 per week.

This shyt is about to kill me and my wife. The day care we picked out is 250 a week and its not even the nicer one around here, that one is 325 a week. What pisses me off is that some people get government assistance and vouchers for this shyt and we get nothing. So im looking at 13 grand a year out my pocket and thats just for one child.

Sounds like child support for a child you already........SUPPORT!

What activities are they doing with the child?

200 a day?

U mean a month?

No its more like a week....I know people paying over $1,000 a month for daycare

 

[Panther]

People have to realize having kids isn't a recreational thing

Amen

It's a serious question, when you leave your child with these people, what is your child doing in that span of time?

I honestly don't know or understand how some of these poor people keep having so many kids.

I used to feel this way until I saw that CBS doc from back in the day when dude in effect said:

"My kids is like...art. They are something amazing that I made and that is my legacy even if I don't do nothing else..."


My family member couple weeks ago told me he has ANOTHER one on the way...this will be his 6th, and
he's not even 30 yet. I just patted him on the shoulder and looked away. He said he's just gonna try and raise 'em
right and hope he hits the lotto with one or two of them. I wanted to punch him in his face.

But still - i'm willing to bet this is how most of them feel (male and female).
Oh well.

I would NEVER trust my kid to a daycare. Too many stories coming out these days about abuse.

That said, I never want to have kids anyway.

That would have been warning enough for me the distance myself from that family member.

I cannot do that. This is my close family member.
We're talkin' someone I grew up in the same house with, who my mama used to bathe in the same bathtub as me.
Besides - as I mentioned, he has 5 other children and they need to see as many black men trying to do right by them as possible.

 

[Jparker]

Need to look into that market. I bet some people eating real good of these costs

my moms had one when I was a kid. She stopped working all together so I know the money good.
Imagine on a low ball of 200 a week per kid
