Aww it's pretty cheap to feed a child, but raising them in a socially acceptable way for your cohort might be expensive.

- eli_gottlieb 14y agoMinimally feed one? Yes. Feed, clothe and care for them "properly", so that measures of their total health (like for example, their height) wind up in strong greater-than-or-equal correlation with parents who are already decently-off? Takes a bunch of effort.
- xyzzy123 14y agoI think we're saying the same thing except that you believe it's more expensive to make sure kids have shoes and aren't stunted than I do. > Takes a bunch of effort. 100% with you on that one.
- jskonhovd 14y agoFood is expensive for a large family with a decent mortgage payment. Also, Remember when you have a family your career mobility drops dramatically. I know I won't have kids until I am 30, without going into debt of course.
