MODERATORS
I often wonder similarly. comes down to double income. We went from families being raised on 40 hours a week labor to 100 or more.
As someone currently raosong 2 kids on a single fairly meager income, it comes down to budgeting, extreme price sensitivity and using the annual child tax credits as a cash injection to rebalance everything every 12 months and/or subsidize major needed purchases
Glad I'm not alone in this. Tight budgeting that slowly trickles down to negative and then the tax credits come in and give us a boost to hopefully last the next year.
