Dept of Labor [0] says childcare has a median cost of $6,552 to $15,600 (least expensive county to most expensive county). The article appears to be basing their childcare assumptions on the most expensive county (where household incomes are also high), and assuming all families of 4 have two children in childcare. Yes, childcare is problematically expensive. But one of the core numbers in the article appears to be misleading at best.
