Oh good grief. Okay so if childcare should be no more than 7 percent then if you pay 1200 per month you should make $200k. This doesn’t mean that if you have two kids and pay $2400 per month you need to make $400k. That math ain’t mathing. Not everything else goes up.
Daycare in my area was $2500 for two kids (with a discount). That’s just daycare. This ain’t even a fancy ass daycare, nor is this a fancy city. Everything is just that fucking expensive now.
Can I just put up one of those gps fences with an electric collar on a goat and just strap my child to the goat when I’m not around? Kid can play outside with his friend and the goat will make sure he doesn’t leave the property… While mowing any abnoxiously tall grass.
2 pitbulls broke in and killed one of my chickens the night before last. Little dude was only born in November.
Also got bit by a different pit bull mix that lives next door January 20thish, hasn’t fully healed yet. (That one was partially fault) Neighbor has an older dog about 10 or 11 and the smaller pit mix got in a fight with her, I made the mistake of pulling the smaller one off because there was to much blood coming from her throat, thankfully both dogs are fine now, still live in the same penned area, but this past 12 months or so haven’t done well for my pitbull confidence. Never disliked them, but for now I’m keeping my distance lol

It kinda does.

Man, I think that’s the going rate for one kid in my area (DC suburb).
yup, you can find cheaper, but it’s closer to life support.

Get them a really protective pit bull :) Train it not to go too far and heard the kid back home.
bonus, belly rubs and pitty leans.

Right, we are to assume that basically everyone with children is bankrupt now? I don’t think that is the case.
Costs vary widely across the vast nation. Not making anywhere near 400k here and doing fine.
For some reason the benchmark is always the highest cost of living cities in America.
Maybe the ones obsessed with making it to the top in those cities are the most vocal online. I don’t know but it’s weird how that is.
