I guess for most people it's not about how expenditures increase, but how the income decreases when you lower the work time from 200% to ~150%.

- lazide 2y agoHonestly, if someone is staying home it’s likely going down to 90% overall. Even if no one if staying home, with the impact of a young kid, 150% is generous. Because if the other party works as hard/long as they used to, expect resentment and turbulence.
- djtango 2y agoFood, plane tickets, cots, nappies, child care, education, extra curricular, upsizing house/car - these are all pretty large expenses for kids... Sure every one of these can be squeezed but living solo/without kids is definitely leaner but yes its a double hit of expenditure goes up and earnings go down
