Participant1000/kid/month is above average even for infants. As kids grow older, they get cheaper.
November 7, 2007 at 9:21 AM #96686ParticipantYeah, my wife is tired of living in an apartment. She loves to have friends and family over and now it is just not convenient.
Have you considered renting a house? 3br houses in Mira Mesa go for 1800-2200 a month.

ParticipantI was very conservative with my first home purchase and regret not buying a larger more expensive home everyday of my life. I have been making double, triple payments every month since I purchased the home (I don’t like debt). I still think buying something you can truely afford is the way to go. Don’t max your self out. Not being able to make your payment is a lot worse then lost potential equity.

Participant“1000/kid/month is above average even for infants. As kids grow older, they get cheaper.”
I totally agree. It’s all relative to how much you want to spoil your children. For the basic needs, it shouldn’t cost that much. I know families who don’t make all that much but can afford 4 kids and a house and able to save. They might not get all the luxury stuff but the kids don’t feel like they’re missing on anything they need to have either. It’s really how you raise your kids.

ParticipantI don’t consider staying home with your children to be spoiling them but it definitely costs a lot of money if you earned a good salary. And if you had to work and didn’t have family available I wouldn’t scrimp on good daycare. Neither one of these scenarios is spoiling and definitely costs money.
Regardless of the figure you think it costs to raise a child you should think about it prior to having them.
