$600K, No Really

Wednesday, April 30, 2008


They say a kid costs $600,000 to raise and that doesn't include college costs. No doubt. There are the diapers, kid food, plastic cups, clothes and shoes, big boy bed, dragging them to vacations, and kid "programs" such as the zoo or music classes, which then turn into lessons. And speaking of suckers, Old Trial has made me part with another chunk of my money for a Moms and Tots class this summer. I am mostly just obsessed with my son liking school and so I keep dragging him over there at every opportunity.

Your son is probably in for it if he is attending "Old TRIAL" school. Did you think about somewhere with less tribulation? Plainly a Freudian slip for you, as you make note, there are fears. Which I think are mostly ungrounded. Yes, he will be traumatized, but I can also bet that its more the trauma of separation for you both... which is a part of self-building and completely natural.

Can you tell I've been reading psychoanalytic theory? I am a dangerous woman when doing work.
