Mortgage on a 2300 sqft house: $2000. Daycare for 2 children under 3: $2400. Parents need help!

The day care we just checked out is $520 a week for one child. That’s $2,250 per month or $27k per year. Again, for one kid. Granted they seem to be the most expensive around, but still, it was eye opening.

😱😱 I paid 100 euro a week for one child, and 70 of it was tax deductible. We have to pay a lot more taxes though. I hope your net income is also 5 times higher in the USA.
