发帖数: 13236 | 2 Middle-income family spends $235,000 to raise child
Associated Press

WASHINGTON— For $235,000, you could indulge in a shiny new Ferrari -- or
raise a child for 17 years.
A government report released Thursday found that a middle-income family with
a child born last year will spend about that much in child-related expenses
from birth through age 17. That's a 3.5 percent increase from 2010.
The report from the Agriculture Department's Center for Nutrition Policy and
Promotion said housing is the single largest expense, averaging about $70,
500, or 30 percent of the total cost.
Families living in the urban Northeast tend to have the highest child-
rearing expenses, followed by those in the urban West and the urban Midwest.
Those living in the urban South and rural areas face the lowest costs.
The estimate also includes the cost of transportation, child care, education
, food, clothing, health care and miscellaneous expenses.
The USDA has issued the report every year since 1960, when it estimated the
cost of raising a child was just over $25,000 for middle-income families.
That would be $191,720 today when adjusted for inflation.
Housing was also the largest expense in raising a child back in 1960. But
the cost of child care for young children -- negligible 50 years ago -- is
now the second largest expense as more moms work outside the home.
The report considers middle-income parents to be those with an income
between $59,400 and $102,870. It says families that earn more can expect to
spend more on their children.
The cost per child decreases as a family has more children. The report found
that families with three or more children spend 22 percent less per child
than those with two children. The savings result from hand-me-down clothes
and toys, shared bedrooms and buying food in larger quantities. | b*******e

我们家大孩暑假参加了subdivision的swimming和water polo.俩个team都是一周五天练
习一天拉出去比赛。游泳比赛那天，parents还要有volunteer duty,做timer, runner
啥的，每次至少要比4个小时，累死我了。隔壁四个男孩，这个暑假每个娃都有
baseketball, baseball,football,swimming camp。我和LD觉得他们爸妈真是牛啊，咋
handle得过来那么多训练和比赛的。

踢足球还算进过几个球，但是不积极拼抢，没什么出息。
以后还得靠学习。还有就是长跑之类的对抗性不强的运动。小孩从小运动，体格还行。

很多邻居干劲很足。
我们家基本都是逃兵，好不容易逮一个周末，还不补个觉。 |
