Just so's all y'all know..... it's probably more equitable than that in the socialist/commie Uk and environs....

In the UK, yup, you get help on low income, and the more kids you have, the more "benefits" you get, but they're generally not enough to make it an attractive lifestyle for the majority ..and you have to jump through hoops of the sort SG is describing with her jobsearch.

Flint... preschool at $10K? what sort of preschool is this? Private high school doesn't cost a lot more that that here, and I think we have a higher cost of living. Preschool was about $500 for us. Or are you talking daycare?
