For me, free as I chose not to. The kids who did were / are very successful.
My younger sister went tho and then ended up at oxford.
The childcare thing is cheap compared to the schooling I reckon - your car could go?

Well there you go. Car for sale, move somewhere cheaper and enjoy life more. Win.Rich B wrote: Thu Mar 16, 2023 2:19 pm No way, I want my kid to turn out like you.
What does your sister do now and has she got kids?
eh? That's the opposite of what I said!

How about your sister. Sounds like she could be a useful reference in this discussion - she's presumably a middle aged woman with a good career - has she had kids and how has she managed the childcare and keeping her career? Presumably she's like me, earns enough to just make it work - though should it only be people like me and your sister who can have kids?
why? You brought up your sister as an example in the discussion - we're just following the natural flow of the discussion. It's even on topic!!Broccers wrote: Thu Mar 16, 2023 2:26 pmDrop me a pm and I'll tell youRich B wrote: Thu Mar 16, 2023 2:25 pmeh?

You clearly have an issue with the English language. Maybe your sister can help you with your spelling?

You start a thread that actually has decent discussion for once and you try and scupper it by acting like a cunt![]()
Of course but its the first step. I'm blown away how much looking after your own family costs.Swervin_Mervin wrote: Thu Mar 16, 2023 2:44 pm I can assure you that private school does not cost as much as nurseryAnd the wraparound care is cheap as fuck by comparison.

as per my previous post, why would I want to go onto private messages? It's totally on topic with this thread?

Your opening post talks about childcare for high earners. You don't have kids but mentioned your sister in a reply.Broccers wrote: Thu Mar 16, 2023 2:54 pmThread title: Budget.

Not that hard. Honestly what a wally.

So, perhaps your sister, who is presumably now at or past child bearing age and, as an Oxford graduate might be earning a high wage, might be a useful reference piece for the discussion?
Or, perhaps you just wanted to sneer at everyone else who hasn't taken your own route through life, like usual?
