Date: November 4th, 2024 7:31 AM Author: ...,,..;...,,..,..,...,,,;.., Not poor enough to get any kind of government aid, but a two income middle class family making 100k HHI (for example, teacher making 45k and generic office worker guy making 60k) and then having to spend a ton of money on child care and all sorts of child expenses is fucked…. Especially relative to what their boomer parents had. And never being able to afford a house. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5624369&forum_id=2\u0026mark_id=5310919",#48279153) |

Most MC families were living in 2 bed 2 bath tiny houses back in the 50s. You can still find those kind of homes in some cities. Sending kids to public schools and using something like YMCA for free after school care means you just need to scrape enough together to provide 9 meals a week per kid and cover summers.
