If your man pays all the bills at home and you buy groceries. Who pays for fulltime child care expenses?
I'm asking for a quick poll only because I'd like to start working fulltime soon and I know this is gonna come up.
Yeah my husband and I are also joint, we just pool our money together and everything gets paid for out of that
We are joint. There is no his and hers. We are a team
It depends on how much you each make, I'd think. You wouldn't want to spend your whole check on daycare, so even if half the cost is your full check, that isn't fair to you.
We pay all the bills in the home. If we are living together our money is joint. No his and hers.
I think half and half!! But either way it has to be paid, what ever y'all figure out I'm sure that'll be what's best for y'all..
@nerualauren would be me once I start working :/
@shorty02 true but I always feel short handed since he's got 2 kids from a previous marriage that he supports.
Whats your thought. I don't mind opinions.
need suggestions....
So at work we have a drink thief. Any time we put a drink in the fridge it disappears. I swear I know who it is. So far he's taken drinks from everyone that works in the office, we even put a sign to not take anything you didn't pay for and wrote our names on the drinks. The person I think is taking them works out of the office so we never get to see who is drinking them.
School fees
Having an intense debate on Facebook about school fees for public school. I'm in the "stop whining about school fees and stop having kids if you can't afford them" camp and there is the other camp of "free school is a constitutional right! It's bull s*** we have to pay anything at all".
Dad's FB Video!!
Did anyone see that video a dad posted on his daughters FB page? He saw a post she made where she bashed her parents and cursed them, called them lazy and told them they should pay her for stuff she did around the house... So he called her out on it and put the video on her page!! Sorry if I missed a post already about this already, but I just saw the video and IT WAS AWESOME!!! Hahahhaa!
So someone contacted me waiting me to watch her son four days a week for $150/wk. I had to tell her that even if someone worked for $10/hr it only pays for a day and a half in my opinion?
I mean maybe I’d do it for $300? But the $150 I just can’t see if being worth it to me
3RD UPDATE: What would you do?
Ok, so we have these new neighbors they have been there renting the house 2 doors down for about 3 months or so. They have a 2 year old boy, he just turned two. They have asked me to babysit him on multiple occasions, just so happens I've been busy each time. In my mind, they don't know me or anything about me. Barely know my name and they want me to watch their kid because they see I have kids and stay home. Apparently they haven't had any luck with the babysitt...
#1 if your man has 2 kids previous..that has nothing to do with his obligation to his little new family ..i would say half and half but..if one makes way more money than s little more than half they should pay
